Rash: Although only on your hand a rash is still most likely cause for symptoms. Contact dermatitis would be likely. The hand getting hit like for example catching a ball that could cause a red rash. Do have a wrap around her wrist that can cause some petechial hemorrhage that could be another reason for rash.
