I have a small mole, about 2mm, but it has been bleeding and is now crusty with redness around it. should i worry?

See dermatologist: Any change in a mole should prompt a visit to a dermatologist for examination. Bleeding from a mole is a red flag for skin cancer. Please see a dermatologist.

Cancer?: See a dermatologist. Bleeding and change in shape are bad signs. May need biopsy.

Worrying doesn't : Help. I would recommend a biopsy since its 2mm this would be a minor in office procedure that a dermatologist could perform on the spot.
