What Are The Symptoms Of Congenital Myasthenia Gravis?
My son is 2 and a half years old and he weights about 35 pounds. He has Asthma and Congenital myasthenia gravis. What our concern is though is it looks like he has dry blood all around his hairline it is expecially thick behind the ears. He isn t bleeding from the ears or anything that we can see.

Mysthrnia Gravis by it self doesn't cause any bleeding, it's a disorder of the neuromuscular junction .
However some medications that are used to treat mysthrnia Gravis such as quinidine can cause thrombocytopenia which is low platelets and cause bleeding
I recommend doing complete blood count .
I hope this helps
