Reason For Petechiae On Calves And Feet?

I have petechiae on my calves and feet that came out of nowhere. I have low blood pressure, no new meds, no infection, no traumas , no apparent reason for it to happen. My dr. doesn t know anything about what it is but ran a CBC and all the tests came back normal. It can t happen for no reason, right?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

It may be echymosis ..purpura. May be age related .. senile purpura . Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis. I would recommend you to apply thrombophob ointment and to take high doses of vitamin C. There is no need to worry.

Hope this helps.
