Purple Red Spots On Skin With A White Spot In The Middle, Bruising, Hot To Touch. Causes?

My sister has several reddish purple spots that are about the size of a quarter. They have a small white spot in the middle. Within hours a bruise starts spreading out and becomes very large. She has one spot that started on her shoulder and now has what appears to be a bruise that is spread as far as her elbow . The entire area feels hot to her and is very painful. What could this be?
