What Causes Red Spots Over And Under The Feet?

I have had red spots all over my feet and under my feet for the past week. They are not raised and do not itch much. They are on both of my feet. The only thing I can think of is that I took some minocycline a few days before I noticed it. Any idea what this could be?

Dermatologist,  's  Response
the red spots over your feet are known as purpura. they can be due to various causes. but since you haven't mentioned any other symptoms I am presuming u have none. so in that case u need not worry. they might be due to a viral infection. in case u develop any other symptom or these increase or get raised u need to follow up.
