i got one on my elbow that was suppose to go away but didnt. and yeah, apparently there sort of symbolic to you're past life.
interesting to read about cause there was a doctor in the 60's who studied reincarnation cases and found that many children who talked about dying and their past lives had some sort of significant birthmark.
"In 1980, a young fruit seller named Mushir Ali collided with a tractor and died from injuries to his right side when he suffered several fractured ribs. Less than a year later, Naresh Kumar was born. He had a significant mark and depressed area on the right side of his body where his ribs were located. As soon as he learned to talk, he spoke of memories of selling fruit and driving a cart. He was born into a Hindu family but would speak about being a Muslim and would kneel for prayers when no one was watching. He recalled selling mangoes and even talked about dying in a collision when he was just 4 years old. When Naresh saw Mushir Ali's father in the village, he ran up to him calling him father. This was very difficult for the fruit seller's family as they didn't believe in reincarnation, but when the young boy was taken to the fruit seller's home, he recognized all the family members by name and even mentioned a man who had owed him money. The family of the deceased fruit seller then accepted Naresh as the reincarnation of their son".
