Bleeding mole and endocarditis

[Alex]

Hey, I know I might just be paranoid about endocarditis, but I just noticed that my mole was bleeding while I was sleeping (might have scratched it off) and I was just wondering if this is known to cause endocarditis. Once I woke up and cleaned the dried up blood, it began to bleed again and it took me a while to get the bleeding to stop.

Antibiotic cream and a bandaid should be good enough. Call a local nurse or clinic if you are concerned further.

bleeding moles should always be looked at by a doctor

x2 I would get your Doc to have a look at your next visit. Because I'm on immune suppressants for RA I have to be very careful about infection, and I found Band-aids brand bandages with antibiotic in them.
