      It is not diabetes. There is a pro fighting game (Guilty Gear and Street Fighter) player called Marn that has HS Purpura. Is causes the blood vessels in your skin to get inflamed and bleed, and there was probably a secondary infection happening at the same time.

      Whang! on YouTube has a pretty good video where he looks into this and gives more details

      Edit: either HS Purpura or PLEVA

        My daughter has HSP and it looks nothing like that. The dots are red for her, and bigger. I’m sure it’s possible to present differently, but man that looks so much worse.

      Looks like skin lesions, but I found a Tales from the Internet video saying it was PLEVA or vasculitis.

        Yeah, I get autoimmune vasculitis from time to time when I have a rheumatoid arthritis flare up and it looks very similar to this (although mine is never this bad because I take meds, like holy shit that guy must be in ridiculous amounts of pain and needs to get on some medication right fuckin now)
