Worried about moles - Skin Problems Message Board

Over the last month or so I've had two small moles on my arm change slightly.
The tops were knocked off and they have both bled.
One has gone back to normal, and grown only slightly, but the other is still open and healing slowly.
Is this a normal stage for moles to go through? Or should I be worried?

Thanks

You should be worried. Moles shouldn't bleed. That's one of the signs of skin cancer. Go see your doctor.
