Brief Answer: Please refer to the following suggestions... Detailed Answer: Hi my dear, Thank you for sending in the requested photos. I have seen them and could say that the broken capillaries could be: - because to local damages (perhaps you have the habit to keep or press that part of earlobe with your fingers, especially when nervous) - possible cold weather at the area you live (causing local ischemic attacks). - use of blood thinner drugs (warfarin,aspirin,etc.) Neither the cases are malign. However, if you feel any pain or associated chest problems, I'd suggest to consult cardiologist and run cardiac tests. if no other symptom, you can wait for one more month; if no improvement, ask for dermatologist assistance. All the best! Dr.Alba Feel free to ask me again if you have further concerns! If you are satisfied with my answer, please close this thread and kindly rate my answer!
