Red Blood Spots On Soles Of Foot. No Itching Or Paining. What Could Be This?
Hi, yesterday I noticed numerous red blood spots 20+ , 3mm evenly spread on the soles of each foot under the skin - toes to heel. Today most have turned orangy coloured. They do not fade with pressure. Not itchy or painful. Is it something to go to the drs about? Only new thing is I have stayed in a hotel since Thursday. Are their biting bugs which could cause this?!

Hi,
It seems that you are having purpuric spots.
There are many causes.
Drugs induced,trauma,insect bites,anaemia,vitamin deficiencies,nutritional deficiencies,internal diseases,blood diseases..etc
You must consult dermatologist for clinical and laboratory diagnosis.
After diagnosis, you may be given perfect treatment.
I hope you might be satisfied with my answer.
Regards.
