So I figured I'd ask about the spots then. But having an appointment tomorrow is good cause the doctors office called me Friday and wants me to come in for lab testing to check my blood count anyway. I take B12 injections once a month though and don't know why these spots would appear, unless my injections aren't enough. kinda look like tiny cuts and maybe bleeding under the skin. I may just be getting them because I have a B12 deficiency, which also has to do with a low platelet count. I have an appointment with my doctor tomorrow to ask him about them to find out for sure what they are.

In one or two cases the person had to have their spleen removed. Here are 21 conditions that cause common red spots on the skin and how to treat them. I also did research online and think they maybe ITP (Idiopathic Thromaocytopenic Purpura), it's a condition of having a low platelet count (a blood condition). They don't itch, they are not going away and they are not raised. I now have several more on my stomach, some on my chest now, some on my higher arms, and some on my thighs. Then about a month later I noticed that they are increasing in numbers and spreading to different areas. I have tiny red spots appearing on my skin. They do not itch and are not painful at all.Īny suggestions would be much appreciated. Should I be concerned? I have read many articles and post that suggest different things (I have goolged for images and haven't found any that look like what I have.) ranging from nothing to death. My girl friend has a couple on her also that she says she has had all her life but only two or three. Petechiae are tiny, flat purple or red spots on the skin, caused by broken blood vessels and bleeding under the skin. I would go to the doctor but I am a student with no health insurance. Palatal petechiae may also represent rupture of capillaries caused by repeated coughing, sneezing, or vomiting. The soft palate is the most common intraoral location for petechiae. Here are 21 conditions that cause common red spots on the skin and how to treat them. These non-blanching hemorrhages may occur on the skin or oral mucosa. I am a 21 year old male in relatively good health. The term petechiae refers to flat, pinpoint-size red hemorrhages.
I have about 8 or 9 near my underarms and a couple on my shoulders.
I have also had one on my thigh and a couple near my chest bone.
I have had one of these on the palm of my hand all my life. They are not raised and some blanch when pressed while others do not. They are hard to see unless you are pretty close the area. They look like someone took a tiny tiny pin and place little dots on my skin. I don't know if I have just noticed these or if they have just appeared but nonetheless I am stressed out over them.
