A member asked:
A bump that seems to be a mole on my calf not bigger than 0.5cm would bleed occasionally under skin and dries up, and after a while it will subside and turn back to skin color. it will reoccur however. can it be cherry angioma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The only way to know would be to have a doctor examine it. There are other possibilities but a “mole” that keeps bleeding may need to be monitored, depending on the actual diagnosis. A dermatologist would be helpful to diagnose and treat, if needed. Best of luck to you!
