See doc/Bx: A mole that bleeds needs to be looked at. Please visit your primary care physician or dermatology specialist for a biopsy just in case.

A mole, by any other: Something that someone needs to look at besides you. Like maybe your doctor or a dermatologist. You say "mole." Does that mean it is in the brown to black area of our visual spectrum? You say it bleeds after the "scab" falls off. What causes the scab to "fall off?" In any event, if this has been this way for over 2 weeks, certainly no longer than a month, get it looked at if it hasn't healed much.
