What to do if i have a rash that's purple and it burns. can you tell me what it is?

Not so much: dermatologic conditions are hard to discuss without seeing them. and... would imply an inflammatory component involving vessels. This can occur with a reaction to practically anything (including to chronic infections such as hepatitis). Or.. just a bruise....
