Broken blood vessels may lead to petechiae, which are small, colored spots on the skin. Possible causes include infections, injuries, strains, and many common medications. See a doctor if you think you have petechiae.
Petechiae are tiny purple, red, or brown spots on the skin. They usually appear on your arms, legs, stomach, and buttocks. You might also find them inside your mouth or on your eyelids.
These pinpoint spots can be a sign of many different conditions — some minor, others serious. They can also appear as a reaction to certain medications.
Though petechiae look like a rash, they’re actually caused by bleeding under the skin. One way to tell the difference is by pressing on the spots. Petechiae won’t change color when you press on them. They will stay purple, red, or brown. A rash will pale or become a lighter color.
Petechiae are formed when tiny blood vessels called capillaries break open. When these blood vessels break, blood leaks into your skin. Infections and reactions to medications are two common causes of petechiae.
Conditions that may cause petechiae include:
If you or your child has petechiae, call a doctor. Some of the underlying causes of petechiae are serious and need to be treated. It’s hard to know whether you have something mild or serious until you see your doctor for a diagnosis.
You should also call if you have serious symptoms like these:
•high fever
•trouble breathing
•confusion
•change in consciousness
Petechiae themselves don’t cause complications, and they won’t leave scars. Some of the conditions that cause this symptom can have complications, such as:
•damage to the kidneys, liver, spleen, heart, lungs, or other organs
•heart problems
•infections in other parts of your body
If a bacterial or viral infection caused the petechiae, your skin should clear up once the infection gets better. If a medication caused the petechiae, this symptom should go away once you stop taking the drug.
Check the spots often to see if they change. If the number of spots increases, you might have a bleeding disorder.
Before recommending a treatment, your doctor will identify what’s causing your petechiae and other symptoms. Your doctor may prescribe any of these medicines to treat the cause of the spots:
•antibiotics to treat a bacterial infection
•corticosteroids to bring down inflammation
•medications that suppress your immune system, such as azathioprine (Azasan, Imuran), methotrexate (Trexall, Rheumatrex), or cyclophosphamide
To prevent petechiae, you need to avoid the conditions that can cause them. But you can’t prevent all of the possible underlying causes of petechiae.
If you’ve had this reaction to a drug in the past, let your doctor know. Your doctor will probably recommend that you avoid the drug in the future.
To prevent infections that can cause petechiae:
•Wash your hands often with soap and water, or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
•Try to stay away from anyone who appears to be sick.
•Don’t share glasses, utensils, and other personal items.

21. Sept. 2021 · A subconjunctival hemorrhage (sub-kun-JUNK-tih-vul HEM-uh-ruj) occurs when a tiny blood vessel breaks just underneath the clear surface of your eye (conjunctiva). In many ways, it's just like having a bruise on your skin. The conjunctiva can't absorb blood very quickly, so the blood gets trapped.
Most bruises form when small blood vessels (capillaries) near the skin's surface are broken by the impact of a blow or injury — often on the arms or legs. When this happens, blood leaks out of the vessels and initially appears as a dark mark. Eventually the body reabsorbs the blood, and the mark disappears.
