Petechiae and echymoses mean your vascular system is having trouble. Go get blood tests, particularly if you're young. Older women often develop these, but in younger girls it may mean a predisposition to thrombosis or other vascular illness in her old age.

But you should also see a dermatologist.

Petechiae (puh-TEE-key-eye) are tiny little broken capillary blood vessels. Everyone has had them. A hard bout of coughing or vomiting can cause facial petechiae, especially around the eyes. These mean nothing.

This is what I think you have. I suggest going to a Dermatoligist to determine what this is.  It could be an allergy.  It could be an infection.  But I also have these red bumps.  All over right now because of the cold weather.  When I get cut, when I get hot, when I am cold, when I run, they itch, burn, and hurt.  I use hydrocortizone to cure the itching.  I hope you find the answer your looking for.\n\nKeratosis pilaris (KP) is a very common genetic follicular disease that is manifested by the appearance of rough bumps on the skin and hence colloqually referred to as "chicken skin". Primarily, it appears on the back and outer sides of the upper arms, but can also occur on thighs and buttocks or any body part except glabrous skin (like the palms or soles of feet). Worldwide, KP affects an estimated 40 to 50% of the adult population and approximately 50 to 80% of all adolescents. It is more common in women than in men. Varying in degree, cases of KP can range from minimal to severe.\n\nThere are several different types of keratosis pilaris, including keratosis pilaris rubra (red, inflamed bumps), alba (rough, bumpy skin with no irritation), rubra faceii (reddish rash on the cheeks) and related disorders.\n\nMost people with keratosis pilaris do not know they carry it. While KP resembles goose bumps, it is characterized by the appearance of small rough bumps on the skin. As a result, it is often confused with acne.\n\nKeratosis pilaris tends to occur as excess keratin, a natural protein in the skin, accumulates around hair follicles (process known as hyperkeratinization). Unattractive more than anything else, it most often appears as a proliferation of tiny hard bumps that are seldom sore or itchy. Though people with keratosis pilaris experience this condition year round, it’s during the colder months when moisture levels in the air are lower that the problem can become exacerbated and the “goose bumps” are apt to look and feel more pronounced in color and texture.\n\nAlthough exfoliation, intensive moisturizing cremes, and medicated lotions containing alpha-hydroxy acids or urea may improve the appearance and texture of affected skin, results are not permanent. There is no known cure for this condition

Granuloma annulare is a chronic skin condition. It causes reddish bumps that form ring patterns, usually on the hands and feet. This condition resembles ringworm. It occurs mostly in children and young adults and it's also seen with diabetes. Treatment for granuloma annulare would include a prescription steroid cream; so talk to your physician!

Granuloma annulare is a long-term (chronic) skin disease consisting of a rash with reddish bumps arranged in a circle or ring.\nCauses, incidence, and risk factors    \nGranuloma annulare most often affects children and young adults. It is slightly more common in girls.\nThe condition is usually seen in otherwise healthy people. Occasionally, it may be associated with diabetes or thyroid disease. Its cause is unknown.\nSymptoms  -  Granuloma annulare usually causes no other symptoms, but the rash may be slightly itchy.\nPatients usually notice a ring of small, firm bumps (papules) over the backs of the forearms, hands or feet. Occasionally, multiple rings may be found.\nRarely, granuloma annulare may appear as a firm nodule under the skin of the arms or legs.\n\nSigns and tests -  Your physician may consider the diagnosis of fungal infection when looking at your skin. A skin scraping and KOH test can be used to tell the difference between granuloma annulare and a fungal infection.\n\nA skin biopsy may also be necessary to confirm the diagnosis of granuloma annulare.\n\nTreatment - Because granuloma annulare is usually asymptomatic (causes no symptoms), treatment may not be necessary except for cosmetic reasons.\n\nVery strong topical steroid creams or ointments are sometimes used to speed the disappearance of the lesions. Injections of steroids directly into the rings may also be effective. Some physicians may choose to freeze the lesions with liquid nitrogen.\n\nIn severe cases, ultraviolet light therapy (PUVA) or oral medications may be needed.\n\nExpectations (prognosis)    -   Most lesions of granuloma annulare disappear with no treatment within two years. Sometimes, however, the rings can remain for many years. The appearance of new rings years later is not uncommon.

I have them to. I also have them on my upper arms. They are from dry skin. I use a real loofa to scrub them really well and then I moisturize with a good lotion. In about two weeks they go away. I give the area a good scrub about once a week to keep the dry skin away.
