Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

It seems that you may be having ecchymoses. There is blood leaking in the skin. And you developed reddish blotches on the trunk. It is also called purpura.There may be some cause. Or it may be without cause. You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis and treatment. He might prescribe vitamin C and K and may suggest thrombophob oint. to apply. I feel you may be alright. I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
