small hemorrhagic spots

Detailed Answer:
Dear sir/madam

Welcome to healthcare magic

Purple spots are mostly due to bleeds which might happen due to
1. Most commonly due to drug allergies
2. Trauma
3. Bleeding tendencies due to low platelet counts.
4. Infections severe in grade or associated high fever

You get evaluated for all these by undergoing some laboratory investigations like
1. Complete blood count
2. Urine analysis
3. Abdominal scanning for intra abdominal disorders

Feel free to ask questions

Thanks
