Many things.They can be just birth marks creating nothing.Some can enlarge over a period,some may disappear.Very rarely some birth marks can become cancers.
he dies in a fire.
The closest thing he had to a birthmark was a mole on his cheek. He did not have an actual birthmark though.
It doesn't mean anything, birthmarks can be anywhere on the body
NO
In fact, most people have a mark somewhere on their body at birth: may be a light reddish/ pink patch on the back of the head/ neck, & if under the hair not noticeable. Many other marks (especially "strawberry marks") often fade quickly, frequently disappearing altogether in the first few years of life; later, people don't realise they had them - unless photos or parents inform them of the fact!
Some birthmarks are little more than dimples or very small reddish or blue patches on the skin - usually so faint they are not generally recognised for what they are. Also, newborns often emerge quite "battered & bruised" from passage down the birth canal, and such lesions, although rarely permanent, may be considered birthmarks - marks present on the body at birth.
Often people have more "noticeable" birthmarks in places that are not easy to see: unless informed of this by parents or others they may not know about their marks. This is surprisingly common: a former girlfriend of mine had a fairly large (couple of inches across) dark purple birthmark on the back of her head, above the hairline - many people must have seen this during her life (eg hairdressers), but she didn't know she had it until I told her! She was so amazed by this she didn't really believe me until I photographed it for her.
Almost all people have at least a few moles on their skin - a totally "flawless" skin would be very rare indeed! Many moles emerge during childhood, so strictly speaking are not birthmarks, but their formation is generally genetically determined, so in a sense they are.
Birthmarks come in many forms: the "classic" brown/ purple/ black marks present from birth that most think of as birthmarks occur in roughly 10% of most populations, but there are numerous other types of mark that may be present at birth but which fade/ disappear totally quite quickly. Because such marks are not extant or obvious in later life, people often overlook them. In truth, however, it's very rare for a baby to be born who has no skin mark of some sort as a momento of the event.
No you cant its seriously dangerous, i am a nurse and i dealt with a patient who did that and they had to have drastic surgery because it can cause cancer.

No - a scar is connective tissue that replaces bodily tissue that has been destroyed by injury or disease; a birthmark is a mark on the skin present at, or emerging shortly after, birth, caused either by unusual concentrations of pigmentation cells or minor anomalies in blood vessels.
Some might view a scar caused by birth trauma (eg use of obstetric forceps) as a "birthmark", but biologically speaking, "nevi" (birthmarks) and scars are totally different.
It means that your pretty messed up and your gonna die at the age of 77.
Birthmarks are a naturally occurring variations in the pigmentation of the skin. There is no meaning to the shapes they come in.
There was a time, in the dark ages, when such things as birthmarks, moles and blemishes (something everyone has) of any kind were said to be a "Mark of the Devil", but more often than not this was something the Inquisitioners used as proof of the "guilt" of their intended victim.
Short of cosmetic surgery, your best bet is to cover it with make-up. You could also put sun screen on just the birthmark and go tanning to bring the rest of your skin tone up to match the birthmark. You of course can't cover the birthmark perfectly, but just getting the sunscreen on the general area will help.
Cafe-au-lait spots are large, round or oval, flat lesions of light brown pigmentation found in at least 33% of children. Though, most of the time, these spots are benign, there are a few conditions that will manifest cafe-au-lait spots: neurofibromatosis and Russell-Silver Syndrome.
No i don't think because i NEVER see her arm
Congenital hemangiomas or vascular malformations cannot be prevented, but spider angiomas may be prevented by exercise, weight control, and a high-fiber diet, as well as avoidance of sun exposure, alcohol drinking, or wearing tight hosiery.
The cost of birthmark removal varies according to the size and location of the birthmark. It also depends on whether it is done by laser or surgically.
The littlun with the mulberry coloured birthmark on his face claimed to have seen a snake-thing, which he also refered to as a beastie, which he said came during the night. He was worried that it might return and eat him.
In the text of the book the littlun with the mulberry coloured birthmark on his face raises two question. He asks what the boys intend to do about the snake-thing and also asks will it return the coming night. Symbolically he raises other issues, such as why didn't anyone even know what his name was and why was the exact number of boys never determined?
