A member asked:
Earlier i was crying and started itching my skin,now i noticed petechia on my breast/shoulder,is that odd? does that happen?how long does it last?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Common: It is not unusual to develop petechia as a result of scratching the skin - the duration of the petechia depends on how vigorously you scratch. It can last a few minutes, a few hours, or a few days.
