Anybody know what this is ..

This just randomly appeared on my baby girls palm , when I push on it it disappears and then comes back , doesn't seem painful to her or anything , anybody come across something similar before ? Thank you !

How old is she? Could it be a hemangioma (a type of birthmark) that’s under the skin rather than on the skin? Those things usually become more apparent around 3-4 months of age even though they are there from birth (just deeper in, so take a while to show up).

Otherwise I’m not sure and would show to a GP.

Thank you for replying ! Ohh it could be , She was 13 weeks on Friday . Yeah I will show GP as well to see what they think next week

So the age fits. These things aren’t dangerous and usually resolve by themselves, they are just a clump of extra blood vessels, imagine like knitting wool getting a bit muddled up.

They’re only really a problem if: they’re somewhere like over the eye obstructing vision or need the mouth and interfering with feeding OR if there are multiple ones visible, in which case they might do an MRI to check if there are also any internally and what they’re doing, which is very rare.

If that’s what it is, it should be no trouble on the hand.

Hard to tell from a photo though. Maybe someone will have other suggestions.
