What Causes A Small Itchy Red Dot Behind The Hand?

Hello, I ve got this small, singular, red do on the back of my hand. It is less then 1/8 of an inch in diameter. I ve had it for awhile, and it doesn t change anything. It isn t itchy and doesn t cause a discharge. It s just kinda there. I was curious as to whether it was skin pigmentation or something else. A boy in my school has one as well.
