What Is The Cause Of Red Spots On Hand, Bruises, And Soreness?

Yes, my husband (age 73) woke the other day with red spots on the forearm of his left hand. Looked like blood just below the surface like he had scraped it only, he hadn t. This morning he wakes up and has a large bruise on his upper left harm from the outside to the inside of his arm and this one is sore. He also now has one on his lower chest on the left side that is also sore. He takes on 81 mg of baby ASA aday. He is also suffering from gout right now.
