Petechiae on my arm? Very worried

[followthefairytalexx]

I've noticed this on the inside of my arm today. Its only here I have it nowhere else. I am quite freaked out. Should I be worried?

I am no medication and have no health conditions.

Have you pinched your skin at all ? I’ve had similar when carrying a heavy bag in the crook of my arm .

@candle1000 I don't think I have but I can't be sure

What does it mean? I have similar spots under my breast. Should I be worried?

That looks like a pinch if there were lots I'd be more concerned, i suffer from health anxiety and that would rate zero on my worrymeter

I have at least 20 of those on my body. I think they are related to oestrogen. A female thing! that don't cause me any problems.

I get those on my chest of a lot, spattering of them. Worried now.
I did mention it to my doc who didn't seem worried but I didn't have any at the time to show him.
I use steroid inhalers for asthma and I know that makes skin more delicate could that be it?

I get those if I've carried heavy bags in crook of arm.

My mums gp calls them ‘age spots’

I’m covered op. They came on really suddenly on my arms, legs and chest and it was just a hormonal change.

Be careful not to scratch one as they bleed like mad!

I’ve had one random one in the crook of my arm like that before @followthefairytalexx
It’s when you have lots of them like a rash that it is more worrying

I've got quite a few of these, at least 10 - they are harmless as far as I know.
