A member asked:
I think i have petechiae. it occur on my left arm now right thigh. purplish dots only on one spot not scattered. can you get this from stress/anxiety?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Petichiae: These sound as if they may be ecchymoses (deep bruises with bleeding visible thru skin), but might be something else. Not due to stress or anxiety. See a doctor for more specific diagnosis.
