Not sure: what you mean!! Send a picture!!!! This may be tiny veins dilating from pressure...Stop doing it!!!! They should go away in time! Hope this helps! Dr Z

ABNORMAL: When I rest my chin on my hand/knee I get tons of little purple marks under my chin. Are they bruises? How can I make them go away? ANY ABNORMAL BRUISING SHOULD BE SEEN AND EVALUATED BY MD TO CHECK FOR BLEEDING DISORDER
