What Causes Purple Rash Under The Mouth?
Our 8 year old daughter has developed purple rash just under her mouth. It s not itchy or sore. It just looks like a bruise. She also has had two little nose bleeds tonight. She has no temp and seems in good health - but just concerned that it is a symptom of something serious. What could have caused this rash?

Hello,
This could be a bruise. Given the history of recent nose bleeds this assumes significance. I would suggest you to to take to a doctor and get her investigated for a bleeding disorder.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
