A member asked:
Can stress or tighter clothing cause petechia on trunk?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Review your meds: Stress does not sound like a likely cause for petechiae on your trunk. I'd suggest seeing your doctor about this, and reviewing any medications and/or dietary supplements you might be taking. Depending on what your doctor thinks is happening, some blood studies may be in order also.
