Single pin prick spot.

I’ve found a single pin prick spot on my daughters leg. I thought it was a small scratch (she’s just started crawling). It’s been there a since Friday but it seems to look more like a capillary or blood vessel. She is happy and very well in herself, eating, drinking playing etc. Temperature is fine. I’ve made an appointment for her in the morning.
Has anybody seen a mark like this before?

Yes DS gets them every now and then - I went to the doctors the first time but it is (for him) bruising under the skin where the blood vessel has broken

Good to hear. I’ll get it checked out. Did they do anything for it/test for anything else?

Nope just looked at it.

He has since has a actual spreading non blanching rash (bad reaction to scarlet fever)!

Did you ever get to the bottom
Of this @fizzywiz??
My daughter has the exact same and I’m panicking x

Ds gets them lots. It's usually a viral rash. I only worry now if they start getting bigger than a 5p piece or it's spreading so fast you can watch them coming out.

he's been to A&E for blood tests a few times, but really, if they're well in themselves it's not worth the effort.
