Blood Mark On The Right Hand That Appeared A Month After Baby's Birth

Question

There is a blood mark on my son\'s right hand. He is one month old and the mark appeared a week after his birth. It becomes dark when the baby cries. It fades away when my wife does massage on his hand. The doctor has advised her to only observe it whether it increases or decreases. It is not increasing BTW. What should we do?
