A petechia, plural petechiae, is a small (1â2 mm) red or purple spot on the skin, caused by a minor bleed from broken capillary blood vessels. Petechia refers to one of the three descriptive types of bleeding into the skin differentiated by size, the other two being purpura and ecchymosis. Petechiae are by definition less than 3 mm. The term is almost always used in the plural, since a single lesion is seldom noticed or significant.
Petechiae is a condition in which small blood vessels bleed beneath the surface of the skin, giving the impression of dark splotches or specks. They appear most frequently in parts of the body where blood pressure is the highest, such as the feet, ankles and lower calves, according to the MayoClinic.com.
