Woke with petechiae on shins. Not spread. Fast resting heartbeat this evening. Very mild sore throat.33yr old male. Just back from holidays on canaries 3 days. Generally well. Gave up smoking at Xmas. Sleeping more and earlier at night since then. Red slightly scaly rash around nose a few weeks back that responded to moisturiser eventually.

Pathologist and Microbiologist 's  Response
Hello,

Petechia on shins could be due to hematological disorder. I suggest you to get complete blood count (CBC) for platelet count, prothrombin time (PT) and INR.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shailja Puri, Pathologist and Microbiologist
