PDA

View Full Version : Help! Torn a Mole Accidently!

While bathing, I accidently scratched a mole, and it's half off. There was a lot of blood, and I have a band-aid on it now--Do I let it heal over, or should I just tear it off completely? It's on my abdomen, and it's about the size of a pencil eraser. It's raised up a bit, and that's probably why I caught it with my fingernail in the first place.

What's the best solution?

Hi Selene,
Just keep it clean, use a little neosporin or something similar and it will take care of itself. I've done it before too. Quite painful when I scratched it halfway off but it eventually healed and the mole fell off. ;)

Thank you for the reply, cookiepls...I hope it does fall off, because it's in an irritating spot anyways. :) The blood scared me most--I'd hate to tear the rest off and go through that again.
