A member asked:
Are there any non-blanching red dot rash conditions that mimic petechiae? are all non-blanching red spots 100% petechiae?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Skin rash: Many kinds of skin rash could behave this way. Most non-blanching red spots are NOT petechieae. If this has persisted for some time and you are otherwise well, probably it's nothing serious. But see a dermatologist to figure out what's going on.
