It's not likely serious but why not call your pediatrician today or tomorrow, it will make you feel better.

thank you it already make me fell better your answer till the doctors answer cause my friends told me maybe he has a cancer so do the blood test and i was even so scared

It's unlikely that its cancer. More likely that his anemia has made him bruise easily and that the bruising is due to the coughing.
