Hi,
The rash could be a simple erythema (dilatation of blood vessels) or telangiectasia or pigmented purpuric dermatoses.
The rash usually does not require any treatment. But, I request you to consult your Dermatologist to undergo thorough clinical examination and to rule out any underlying vascular disease.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
