Pic's are hard to tell -but it looks like it to me .
I really think you should call your doctor, particularly since this is a new symptom.
Better to be cautious.
Its really hard to tell anything from that photo but petechiae rash is a non blanching rash so does it disappear when u put a glass over it?? If it doesn't then its petechiae
If it’s petechia, it doesn’t blanch when you press on it. So if it blanches( turns a lighter color or white) when you press on it, it is another type of rash. Take care.
Thanks all. I’m trying not to panic but I’m feeling so poorly and rheumatology aren’t accepting referrals at the moment despite my GP making an urgent referral.
