Recurring petechiae in child

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hi,

My 9 year old daughter has been getting what appears to be petechiae, about 6 or so times in the last month or two she has no other obvious symptoms, and we have not identified any food or item that she may have touched for this reaction.

Should we be concerned, given she has no other symptoms?

one example is attached
