Question? was created by Val715
My son has a petechiae dot on each eyeball. This is the first time he had gotten them there. I'm freaking out. Is it common to get them on your eyes? He has numerous ones on his body as well. He is to have rituximad this Tuesday. But I'm worried seeing the petechiea on his eye.

My son has had it a couple times, his didn't spread it was just a dot or 2 and it went away pretty quickly (comparing to how long his bruises and petchiae usually last). It looks horrible and painful though..
