What Are The Symptoms And Treatment For Petechiae?
I am pretty sure I have petechiae. I have small pinpoint red spots that are flat. They are not in clusters, just single random spots. They don t go away either. I have noticed some that have been there for months. Is that anything I should be worried about?

hi,
petechiae are bleed inside the skin. it is not normal. i would suggest you to get a complete blood count done and meet a doctor nearby. however isolated petechiae doesn't need treatment but definately need investigation.
