A member asked:

I accidentally pinched my palm with a staple remover. it did not bleed but i believe it caused a blood clot in my palm and now it looks like mole. what shall i do? is this cancerous?

Give it time: It probably is just blood beneath the skin surface and will go away with time. Sometimes these skin changes can be permanant. If it is worrying you, then you might think about seeing a dermatologist after a few months
