A member asked:
I have these pin size dots all over my legs and arms..what could this be? i have had them for a while now. and it doesn't itch like a rash

Petechia?: It's possible these small dots are petechia, and if that is what they are you need a blood test and examination with a physician. Some infections can cause it, but there is also an immune system disorder of the platelets called itp that needs to be considered.
