Purple blotch on palm

I just noticed a purple blotch on palm, I though it was ink or pinched my skin, it doesn't hurt not swollen, should I take a baby aspirin and go to the GP?

I can't advise you to take aspirin on top of what you already have... you need though, to ring your consultant... or their secretary... or your GP and get it seen sooner rather than later, they then maybe will advise you to take this... perhaps they have in the past! Mary F x

If you have APS, why are you not on Meds?

Im under a haemologist but very borderline result not as many symstoms, I took aspirin yesterday, today the tiny blotch has gone, I had a blood test this morning to see if I'm clotting and check other levels in the blood, ordered via my GP. Everyone are on different levels of meds, how does one know what they should be taking otherwise being directed via a rheumy or haemologist,, when did you start taking meds?

Not what you're looking for?
