hello
from all that you describe it seems to have petechiae, which are small (1–2 mm) red or purple spot on the skin, prapably caused by damage or broken capillary blood vessels.
usually the causes of petechiae are:
-physical trauma
-Non-infectious conditions and infectious conditions
you have to contact your doctor to evaluate the situation and to find the reason of this condition.
