Does leukemia petechiae can turn to black color?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Sajni, When petechiae clump together and turn a purplish black, that is called purpura. These can be a sign of a more serious condition, but sometimes they are harmless. You should see your doctor. Hope this helps!
