Hi dear wilsona,itching isi due to liberation of a chemical by body called histimine,in response to insect bite,allergic reaction to any chemical or any thing which causes minor skin damage,this chemical along with many more causes increase in blood supply to the affected area,and sever itching may damage skin and small caillaries (small blood vesscel),resulting in accumplation of blood under your skin ,which looks like purple ,it will fade way in few days.Itching can be controlled by talking antihistiminc medicine,and if purple bruises dont' disappear in 2 TO 3 days time ,hepirine ointment will make them to disappear
