Worried- non blanching marks
Today I’ve noticed on my little on 3 non blanching pin prick marks on his arm and one just above his arm pit, his completely fine in himself and they are not bruises, they are almost like petechia like spots. Has anyone’s little ones had this before ? his no fever and been crawling and throwing himself like mad, but I have awful health anxiety and my mind always goes to the worst, especially after I saw a post about someone’s child having them and it ended up being Leukaemia. The picture is really blurry and not clear as he wouldn’t let me take one due to fidgeting !

From what I can see it looks like pigment marks but I have terrible health anxiety too so I can totally relate. Definitely speak to your GP to put your mind at ease xx
they do look like that in the photo for some reason but they are definitely little pin prick red marks that don’t fade ! I’m thinking that he went to fall the other day and I grabbed his arm to stop him and I might have somehow caught his skin but my mind doesn’t let me rest unfortunately 🤦🏻♀️ he used to get them when he was a younger by catching himself with his nails (could quite be the same) so I have been to the go before and they always say the same thing , there not worried and as long as his okay in himself 🙄 x
