A member asked:
Lightbrown 1 colour smooth mole thing picked it didn't bleed scabbed over scab fell off bleed now pink looking & healing could it have be a melanoma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It may need Dermatol: Any skin lesion which keeps bleeding and does not heal in 2 weeks need to be checked by a Physician. If you needed a biopsy a Dermatologist may be even better qualified. Melanomas tend to bleed...benign lesions heal if you keep the lesion clean and dry/covered with a band-aid.
