What Causes Purple Bruise All Over The Face?

i ate a brownie last night and it tasted weird so i threw it out. 2 minutes later i had burn like marks all over my face. it cant be hives because it isn t raised or itchy. it looks more like a purple bruise or burn. it looks like theres hickeys all over my face. i went to the doctors and they have no clue what it is. im concerned and it also just does not look cute. any idea of what it may be?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello and thanks for posting.
Sorry to hear about your condition. In general it is difficult to answer any rash or skin like condition without seeing it. I would go back to the physician and have them tell you their thoughts and if they really do not know and your symptoms persist, then perhaps see a dermatologist. You could try some antihistamines like zantac/benadryl. You could also find out what was in the brownie you ate to make sure you avoid these ingredients for a while.
best of luck
