A member asked:
I've hurt both thumb palms they feel bruised but i'm unsure on how they've become bruised. i did drag a suitcase around today whilst travelling.

Palm bruise : You are right. Dragging the suitcase has probably bruised your palm. Any unusual activity the body does will lead to some pain . This is how body brings that to your attention and appropriate steps
