Mole: It should heal without any problem, make sure you washed the area and keep it clean. Any mole that is changing or new should be evaluated by a dermatologist. Remember to wear sunscreen.

See a derm next week: A bleeding mole should be examined to make sure it isn't skin cancer. If you had it examined recently and know it isn't cancer and the bleeding stops, great. But if you have not had it examined, see a dermatologist this coming week. (the emergency room is not the best place to have this taken care of unless the bleeding won't stop. Make an appointment with a dermatologist.).
