What Causes Purplish Discoloration With Painful Red Rashes On The Palm?

Hi my two year old son sometimes happen to have purple skin on his palm right near his left thumb. I always notice that once he has that sometime reddish rashes form around the purple color and causes pain, he tells me he feels pain and I rub off his palm, it stays awhile and then fades after a day or two.I noticed it has happened three times already, please tell me if there might be something really wrong somewhere or if I need to take him immediately to see a doctor.
