Hi... I have this spot on the left side of my right wrist, right below the little line that marks the beginning of my palm, and it's about an inch in diameter... it's brownish/reddish, a tiny bit clear, and it's been there for maybe a month or two now? Maybe longer. I've never had anything like it the other side of my wrist and my other wrist are clear. It doesn't hurt at all and there's no bump underneath it besides the bone. I'm curious about what it could be though. I showed it to my cousin who's an allergy nurse and she thought it was weird, but got distracted with something else.

Also want to add (because Pixie's post was a lil scary
that most likely it is nothing, but just always see a doctor as a precaution, just in case something may be wrong.

I didn't get my period for a little while and I was EXTREMELY swollen in my pelvic area someone said something here about ovarian cancer and all of a sudden I though I was dying. When I asked the doctor he laughed at me. But if you look on the net, yikes, EVERYTHING is cancer or some crazy terminal illness.

yes, no... you are right.
I didn't mean to scare.. just assure.

If in doubt, check it out.. then the crazy thoughts won't overwhelm.

Hell, according to my symptoms, I have Scleroderma.. but I don't.

Heh, don't worry pixelpixie, I'm already very paranoid so you didn't scare me. I'll go to the doctor soon and show it to him.

Thanks for all of the advice guys .

Everlong-

Go to the doctor.....it may be a form of skin cancer. It is nothing to be frightened about but it would be worth your time to have a doctor look at it. It is better to be safe than sorry.

Hope I didn't scare you....

Love to you,
Irish
