Lines on Palms01/30/2009 |
My daughter has 3 lines on one palm and 2 on another palm. She is normal in her milestones and growth. What does this indicate?
This is a normal variant. The creases on the palms of the hands can be variable. For example, having only 1 crease or line across the palm is seen in about 4% of the general population. While having 3 creases - 2 across the palm and 1 that goes down toward the wrist is often the most common pattern, there can be many different variations.
