Omg, I have that. yesteray i got a mild cold, feeling sore throat and a little fatigue and today that under chin rash very very red and a bunch of dots. im convinced its a new illness.. similar to hand foot mouth coxachi virus. but more mild. or maybe a secondary outbreak.

Did anyone ever find out what this is? I've got the same rash/spots under my chin. It's come, gone and come back again over the past week or so. Any ideas?

Pretty late to the party but thought I'd share!

I have a bachelor's in health but I'm no expert, nor a doctor. My guess is that it's a cluster of tiny bruises. I get this a few days after I've rested my chin on my hand for any extended period of time (in class, etc.). Because the skin on your neck is thinner than most of the skin on your body, it may be more prone to bruising (perhaps the same reason "hickeys" happen so easily lol). Like pinkapple1 already mentioned, I believe the medical term for this sign/symptom is called petechiae (pronounced puh·tee·kee·uh). But it's always best to talk to a healthcare professional about this if you're concerned, as it could be a sign of a condition such as anemia.

I've had this lots of times. It's strange and I'm not sure what causes it. It goes after a couple of days. Def like a bruise. X

That is hilarious! What an absolute fool!!! I can vouch that it didn’t kill me, grow or turn into an alien being! It did, however, destroy my brain….🤪
