    20 years old. Brown spots appearing on hand and fingers! Should I worry?
    Hi, I'm a 20 year old male.
    About two weeks ago I noticed a faint darkness on the top of my hand right above my knuckles. They look like two brown circles one the size of a dime and the other the size of a nickel. The spots grew slightly darker in the last week and now are really noticeable. They look like bruises but I know they are not. I also have one of the same looking spots on my other hand on top of my middle finger.

    They are definitely not moles I have not been exposed to sun recently. The spots are not raised, they are flat with my skin.

    Should I get this checked out by a doctor?? Does it sound serious? These are not the symptoms of cancer are they? Please let me know as soon as possible.

    Thanks. :confused:

    If they are round, then they probably aren't cancer. But, any change in your skin like you have described should be checked out by a dematologist.

    Oh god, I just read the thread and everything he said is what I have

    I am 20 years old, I have two brown spots between my thumb and index finger (I noticed this yesterday and thought it was a bruise)

    But today I woke up and saw the same looking brown spot on my middle finger and I know it was not there yesterday.

    I know it is not a bruise because I don't feel pain and haven't done anything that will cause a bruise on my hand.

    Very old and now archived thread that isn't generally visible unless someone visits the forum topic area where it's located or has been notified that there's activity on it because they've already posted on it. Plus, the original poster has never returned to post a response to what's been posted.

    If you have a new question and want it to get noticed the most, I would suggest that you start a new thread with the new question.

    Thanks!

    That's weird. And I'm being serious.
    I'm also 20 and I have faint brown spots above my right middle knuckle, and on my index and middle finger on my left hand. They look just like bruises, but they're not.
