Little mole woun't stop bleeding how do i stop it...?

Question

Earlier i was shaving my face and i got a very small mole on the right side of my chin i accidentaly nicked it. It stopped bleeding at first now for the last 10mins i have had a piece of tissue paper against it hoping it will stop. Is there a way that i can get it to stop..? should i keep that tissue there and hope it will stop soon..? or go to the emergency room..? thanks

Answer 1

I don't want to say that you need stitches, but if it doesn't stop bleeding within the next 10 minutes under constant pressure, then you should call your doctor. Better safe then sorry.

Hope you're okay!

Answer 2

Just relax and give it time, and put some neosporin on it, and apply a bit of pressure.  Its not like you are hemorrhaging from a mole so I wouldn't worry.

Answer 3

put some coffe on and it would stop bleedin dry not liquid

Answer 4

get a very small piece of toilet paper and fold it and stick it to the mole.

Answer 5

you shouldn't worry about it. just let it clot on its own. a small nick wont cause you to bleed to death. just don't keep wiping the blood away

Answer 6

keep the tissue on it but try applying pressure.

Answer 7

You should probably call the emergency room first to see if they think you should come in, but if it were me I would make an appointment as soon as possible with my doctor. Bleeding moles aren't something to take lightly. Someone very dear to me has had to have theirs removed so I've done some research on them. Read this and decide for yourself.

Answer 8

Go to the er if you think you need stitches.  

Answer 9

Put an ice cube wrapped in a layer or two of paper towel (so you can still feel the cold) on top of it and apply pressure. If it doesn't stop bleeding in ~4 minutes, I would suggest seeing a doctor.
