Petechial Rash - Approach 

Interesting to see things besides leukemia...so I can be less paranoid.

I love these little videos... thank you for making them.

Please make more of these videos you are a lifesaver

Thank you. These little knowledge boluses are great. Please keep them up.

Excellent video. Easy to understand and very informative. Thanks for sharing

Thank you Dr. Very simple explanations for complex concepts.

Please make more of these videos. Would love having the schemas on the websites narrated by Rabih or Reza :)

Loving those videos. Learning a ton from them! Keep this good work up!

excellent presentation!!

Thanks, it was very educational information.

From bottom of my heart :THANKS.

Wow i really liked this talk. Thanks! And it was very helpful too! I noticed these little spots on my skin when i started working out but really pushing myself, especially in the weight room, and now i see it's possibly due to me traumatizing the vessels. 🤔

This was very very helpful!

It's pure art ❤

thank you

good lecture❤👌👌👌👌

I like this too much

Thank you. Last couple years they’ve been appearing in more places and haven’t gone away. Abdomen, chest, palms, arms, and lower legs. The ones on my arms and lower legs starting appearing recently but they are pretty small and scattered. Glad to find some info. Have a few other things going on. Maybe they are all connected.

My little boy has a petechial rash on his inner thigh. It is about the size of a silver dollar. It’s an odd place. No injury. He found it while going to the bathroom last night. He woke up this morning with a wet cough and feeling tired but aside from that he’s ok. I don’t want to be an alarmist so I’m watching it. I’ll take him in if it worsens. I’m second guessing myself though.

Super

I got purpuric rashes on my legs. I've been dealing with them for more than 10 years. Doctors prescribe antibiotics and corticoids 😓😓 they disapear for a while leaving no marks but reapears. My biopsy results was "Angioedema".

These videos making my future flashier than the shirt you're wearing

Thank you

I had a petechial rash from a drug reaction to phenytoin many years ago.

Would you touch on how to treat vasculitis please 🙏?

I have noticed petechiae and pupura my legs, thighs and rarely arms for few years now. I have developped gluten and seafood allergies recently. Usually these appeared in cold weather and after consuming seafood accompanied by stomach bloating etc. Is there any relation with allergies or I should be worried about something worse?

I often used compression socks in my everyday standing jobs during five years, and it's been already one year that I noticed side effects, having developed petechial rash on my ankle: Lateral/anterior parts. As soon as I noticed the cause, I did not wear compression socks any more, however the rash stays there, and it does not disappear. What can I do for it to heal.

If a person was taking an immunosuppressant for psoriasis and then stopped and the psoriasis came back quickly and aggressively, could this be a cause for petechial rash?

What about meningococcemia?

Do I go to primary doctor? Or ER. & what if left untreated

I’m getting petechia on my neck and chest after I do gym and it’s itchy what can I do? Thanks 😊

I don't have rashes but just small red pin prick dots randomly everywhere and some that look like dark red pin pricks. It's unsettling

Oh my gosh, this video made so much sense! I've been dealing with a petechial rash for a couple of years now, and no dr could ever explain it. I have fibromyalgia and sjogrens along with spinal arthritis. Did I understand that those inflammatory conditions could be a part of the reason for the petechial rash? I have stopped using nsaids at my Dr's recommendation, and the rash appears l less often now.

Im new for vasculitis rash since march 2024. All my organs fine so far but rash and flare ups are here 😢 if i stay home it is gone if start walking it come back

What about in the face?

Thank you very much for this video. Derm is not so scary after all :)

Hi! I have MCTD w/APS high platelets not low. It’s a rare combination and no one has been able to answer why I have red spots. They are on my feet and ankles then creep up my legs to my groin, and are on my hands creeping up my arms. I have some on my face, too. They did a biopsy and it came back negative. I’ve been to two dermatologists, and they cannot explain them. Because my condition is similar to Lupus, they tried hydroxychloroquine sulfate, but it enflamed my red spots and they started to burn really bad after two weeks on the drug. Because MCTD is a ‘basket’ of different immune disorders, the polymytosis is the worst. Where I get the red spots, I’ve been losing muscle mass. I have skeleton hands and feet, and ankles, and again, it creeps up my legs, which are slender and my arms are too. I’ve noticed rashes on my breasts this past year, but my stomach is bloated. I have trouble swallowing food, my esophagus doesn’t always work, and has much scar tissue from years of throwing up. I was severely low on potassium, which now with my numbers at about 3.2, a bare minimum, I no longer throw up. Sometimes my spots increase, but never go away, they just appear slower. It’s just weird how you can see my bones on the backs of my hands. I had two heart attacks last year, (unvaxed), now on blood thinners, I am only here by the grace of God. It would be nice to know why I’m getting spots...it started 20 years ago, just on my ankles.

Petechial hemorrhage can be caused by hyperadrenocorticism which causes bone marrow suppression and eventually death

Great video Reza, keep good work with your team! I want to point to one mistake - You said: "Extravasation of red blood vessels", but we know what you were thinking. ;)
