Hi..
Thanks for the query..

As per your complain a spot on the cheek that bleeds on even slight stimulation can be a Hemangioma that is an arterio-venous malformation that is related to blood vessels and a slightest stimulation can cause bleeding..

I would suggest you to consult a Physician and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation has to be done...

In case if there is Hemangioma formation then it can be treated by application of Sclerosing agent but in case if it does not improve or recur surgical removal can be advised..

Hope this helps..

Regards.
