I'm sorry Rumi is not feeling well. The photos make it look as though she has bruising. This is very concerning, especially if she hasn't hurt herself in a way that would normally cause bruising. Bruising alongside her other clinical signs may indicate that she is systemically unwell. I would have her evaluated by a veterinarian as soon as possible.
