Hello, I have a small red dot on my the tip of my nose. over the past year it has grown in size and turned a dark red almost purple color. It never scabs over. if I wash my face can bleed, and won t stop bleeding until I apply a lot of pressure. It s tender to the touch. At first I thought it may be a pimple. But beginning to think it may not.lllllllllllllllllll
