What Causes Brown Rash At The Base Of The Thumb?

Hi can you give me any ideas as to why I have suddenly developed a light brown freckle on the heal of my palm, near the base of my thumb, and another on the other hand near the finger tip - both on the palm-side, not on the more-exposed back of the hands? Any idea what causes it? Any reason for concern? They are neither raised nor inflamed. Seem more like pigment under the surface

Hello Dear. It may be just a pigmentation or nevus. Do not worry. But in case if it is growing, itching excessively then consult skin specialist. Otherwise nothing to worry.
