If you set the position of a geom to put it in contact with something
else, then a collision will be reported. What you do with it depends
on what you want to happen. Most likely, you want to create a
collision joint on the character holding the object, so it acts like
an extension of the character itself.

It really depends on what you want to happen when a collision occurs.
Can you provide more details about what you are doing, what you have
tried, and what you didn't like about the results?
