What Causes Pink Crusty Mole Like Growth On The Cheek Bone Which Bleeds?

A small round pink crusty mole like growth suddenly came up on my cheekbone about 4 months ago & when I picked at it, it bled a lot & then just came right back & crusted over. It s about the size of a pea. Any suggestions on what it might be? Thanks, Lori.
