I have splinter hemorrhages on 4 nails at the moment, 1-4 on each nail. Am freaking out. They are only visible if you look closely, but still. Have had them before - but usually only one or two on one finger at a time.
Have been very fatigued lately and had quite a few viral infections since October, so had full blood count about a month ago. All normal except slightly raised ANA and slight iron deficiency, but doctor was not concerned. I have had several blood tests during the last four years, all of which have been normal except ANA (has been slightly raised since at least 2017, when it was tested the first time).
I have shown my doctor the splinter hemorrhages once last year when I had two tiny ones, he just sad petechiae and not to worry. But I have had a lot more symptoms lately (also been severely stressed - just split up with my children's father and now Corona crisis) and now several more splinter hemorrhages. It's freaking me out. Anyone else had these?
I am female, 28 years old... So scared this is caused by vasculitis secondary to an autoimmune disease or cancer :(
