The side effect that you are describing, petechiae, is considered a minor bleeding complication of Coumadin. This blood will not bleed out of your pores. However, if you notice that it worsens suddenly, you should contact your doctor immediately. The most important issue to reduce the risk of serious side effect while taking Coumadin is to have your blood work done regularly, so your doctor can monitor your PT and INR (lab values) to make sure you are on an appropriate dose of Coumadin.
