Rarely I notice a small black and blue mark somewhere and never remember hitting or bumping something, but no lumps or bumps.

I Googled it, since I was curious if this was bruising. It said, “Blue lumps” are not typical presentation of MM, but in rare cases, a condition called “cryoglobulinemia” associated with MM can cause purplish or blue-colored skin lesions, particularly when exposed to cold temperatures, due to abnormal proteins clumping together in the blood: this is often accompanied by symptoms like joint pain and numbness in the finger and toes.
