agree  David Koppel: But in Gyldendal, this is spelt "pinpoint hemorrhages". (Petechia is also correct, but Latin)

disagree  CG diPierro MD: This would be the laymans terminology. The submitted question is clearly medical terminology and requires translation with the word used in medical English which is petechiae.
