Why do my palms look like that?

Posted , 2 users are following.

It doesn't hurt or feels bad, the only problem is how it looks. So, I wonder how can I fix this? Do I need to see a doctor? I've been having it for years, during the day (at work) it's much more visible.

    At a guess i think you must be quite young with pale skin. The blotchiness is often called Biers spots but it is not harmful or dangerous in any way.It may help to drink more and exercise your hands and arms when you are working. Especially if they are in one position during your working day, eg working on a keyboard. Nothing to worry about.
