I had a shave biopsy a week ago on my leg. the site has gotten very tender, slight bleeding, and looks a bit darker than it used to. is it infected?

Recheck: If I were seeing you in a clinical setting, I would want to know first off if the pathology from the biopsy was back yet. Skin cancers are known for being prone to bleed. Are you taking any sort of blood thinner including over the counter Aspirin? Are you having fevers or feeling ill in general right now? Do you have a history of poor healing or scarring after injury? Would let your MD know.
