Purple discoloration to the dermis generally means blood has escaped from the blood vessels and is in the epithelial and connective tissues (commonly caused bruising).

At first glance, I would be worried this is purpura hemorrhagica, a potentially nasty vascular condition that would need medical attention promptly.
