What Causes Light Bruise Around The Mole In Shin?
Hello, I have a raised mole that is on my right shin. It hasn t changed in colour or size but light bruising has developed around it and it is tender. I also notice other light bruises on the same shin and I am not sure why. I have an appointment with my dermatologist in three days. Should I be concerned?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here I would like to say that if this is mole then the it should be clinically examine to differentiate this for the nature of mole the tissue surrounding the mole becomes to much fragile and because of the slight compression it could bleed and causing the bruise, hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
