What can I do about a petechial rash around my eyes?

Answer by  YellowCup (1650)

It is possible that a petechial rash around the eye could be caused by something minor like crying or being sick with a minor illness, if that is the case it will normally clear up on it's own in a few days. If you cannot find a reason for the rash, it is best to consult a doctor.

A petechial rash is not at all normal. See a physician, regardless of the location where petechia are forming. Petechia are the result of tiny hemorrhages under the skin, which are associated with a variety of conditions and disease. Make an appointment to review the situation and determine the cause of the petechia.

Since this is a minor hemmorhage usually caused by coughing, crying, or vomiting; petechia usually treats itself within 2-3 days. If not, it's best to consult a doctor.

Petechiae are tiny, reddened, pin-point spots of skin discoloration that occur because of broken blood vessels close to the surface of the skin (eg, a hickey). Petechiae resolve spontaneously.
