I have been getting permanent small marks for years that look kind of like mongolian birthmarks or bruises all over body what is this?

Blue nevi: You may be developing blue nevi. The blue color is due to the fact that melanocytes are located deep in the dermis level of the skin. Usually seen predominately in asian people. Check with a dermatologist because they can sometime undergo malignant changes.
