Tiny painless dark oval appeared on hand 3 days ago. thought it was a blood blister but don't remember an injury. should i get checked for melanoma?

Bruise: Sounds most like a bruise and sometimes they can pop up without being aware of the injury. You can give it a week or 2 to resolve. I would give it up to a month to resolve. If it doesn't, you could see a doctor, but very unlikely to be melanoma.
