Spot On Nose That Scales, Bleeding, Negative Biopsy. History Of Basal Cell Carcinoma On Nose
I ve had a spot on my nose that gets scales, then bleeds for over two years. My dermatologist did a biopsy and it was negative. However, it continues. I ve had a basal cell carcinoma on my nose and a squamous cell on my back. He has frozen the site on my nose slightly, but it continues to come back bigger and is there all the time.

HI,
I can understand your concern for mole. The most important thing is that not all moles are dangerous. SO even if there is possibility of mole you should not be panicky about it. From your description it do not appear as malignant melanoma.
Just check for asymmetry, itching and pain in the mole.Even then it will better to see a dermatologist for best diagnosis.
