Suggest Treatment For A Blood Blister On The Shoulder

I have what looks like a blood blister on my right shoulder. It does not dry out. I pricked it with a sterile needle and pushed blood out. The blood then reformed. I ve had this spot for a couple years. 1/2 centimeter diameter. No soreness associated.

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi

The kind of skin lesion you have could be something like pyogenic granuloma.
It is a very vascular skin lesion and can be associated with occasional episodes of bleeding .
It needs to be treated with cauterisers like chemicals or electrocautery or radio frequency.
Avoid pricking the lesion yourself .
See a nearby dermatologist for proper management.
