What Causes Petechiae On The Chin?

I noticed petechiae on my daughter's chin a couple of days ago. It faded a bit but today is back again under her bottom lip and chin. Her only other symptom has been a mild cold with a runny nose. Do I need to bring her to the pediatrician to get checked out or is the petechiae his due to her cold virus?
