Medical inflammation of capillaries; a condition where the smallest blood vessels become swollen and irritated.
From Latin capillaris 'hair-like' (referring to capillaries) plus the medical suffix -itis meaning 'inflammation of.' This follows standard medical nomenclature for inflammatory conditions.
Capillaritis can show up as tiny red or purple spots on skin—it's what happens when the smallest blood vessels in your body get inflamed and leak a little blood!
