Red Blotches On Palms, Disappears After Pressing
I have red blotches on both palms. It covers about a third of each palm. The blotches are not raised and they do not itch . It just appears as red blotches under the skin. When I press on it then it disappears for a second and reappears and I can visible see the capillary refill. I have been a respiratory therapist for 20 years and have never seen anything like this.

Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.
Lesions which blanch on pressure are most commonly seen due to vascular malformations like Haemangiomas.
I suggest you to visit a Dermatologist who after examining you can be able to find out the exact cause.
Wish you good health.
