A member asked:
Can mild petechiae on arms, legs, and torso be caused by an allergic reaction to a new lotion or a new oral supplement with different herbs and vitamins in it? it had a lot of biotin in it. no other symptoms other than some stomach aches?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You should stop the herbal supplement immediately. If there is any sign of bleeding, go to ER. Lotion for skin can cause contact dermatitis but rarely causes widespread petechiae. Take care.
