A member asked:
I have a new olive spot on the palm of my hand. it apeared about a year and a half ago and i'm almost sure it has grown bigger. should i remove it?

Probably not: Any spot that is new or has changed with time should be looked at by your doctor. Only they can tell you whether it needs to be checked out by a hand surgeon or dermatologist. Serious hand bumps are not very common and usually do not need treatment, but you should get it checked out.
