Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,
This bruises could be urticaria or dermatitis or some allergic reaction.
They must be diagnosed by visual inspection of a local doctor or dermatologist.
Treatment can be started after the main cause.
However, you can go for routine blood count,ESR etc and expert opinion.
Meanwhile, you can take antihistamine (bensdryl or avil or cetrizine),analgesics and topical steroid application to get rid off this.
Kindly consult GP or some local doctor (if it takes time dermatologist opinion) for thotoghly treatment.
