Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
At this point, without photographs or examination, it's difficult to solve your problems. Your problem needs an examination to be done.
What I can advise you is these rashes could be petechiae. If you send us some photographs and follow-up then we can tell something about the problem to solve it, hope you understand the limitation of online consultation and send us photographs.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Archana
