Hi...by what you quote I feel that he might be having hypothermia or low body temperature. This is not a good sign. The little circles under the skin are suggestive of status marmoratus a temporary skin condition which occurs due to lower body temperature.
This could be due to viral illness too. But I suggest you consult a physician immediately or get to an emergency room.
