Picked off top of mole. Bleeding

[funnygirl98]

Hey everyone

About an hour ago I’ve just discovered one of my moles on my left arm had a scab on it. Of course I panicked. But then I remembered I was proper scratching at it and picking at it a few days ago etc. But of course if the mole scabs that can be a sign of melanoma. I’m proper panicking right now. But I have read that scratching and picking moles can cause them so scab too. But to be sure I’ve booked an appointment with the doctor for Wednesday morning. But after I booked it. I managed to pick the scab off. the mole looks normal now. So I’m just confused more than anything. Can melanoma scabs come off that easily? I know you guys arnt doctors but has anyone had a mole that’s scabbed over after scratching it? Thank you

You can't pick off skin cancer :)

Thank you. But from what I’ve heard. Melanoma scabs can come off still quite easily.

Hey everyone.

I’ve mentioned about my mole yesterday and like the idiot I am I’ve been picking at it again. Now I’ve made it bleed a little. So I’m wondering is it ok if it scabs? Obviously I’ve injured it so I’m sure it wouldn’t be melanoma. But I’m still worrying. Has anyone had anything like this before?
