Why has the surface of mole after tearing not healed yet?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I tore off a mole or a freckle some weeks ago and now the surface, it is like this. Is it good or should I worry? What are those red spots?

Hi,

I am glad you chose icliniq for your medical-related queries.

I understand your concern and will try to help you with it.

I have gone through your case.

Your lesion is active which means the area has not healed after removing your mole (attachment removed to protect patient identity). Keep applying Fucidin acid cream two times a day till the red area disappears. It is not something to be worried for as such raw areas take some time to recover. But no opinion can be given for lesion or mole or freckle which you have removed yourself. It could be a simple mole or it could be a wart. Such raw areas are usually seen after wart scratching.

Thank you for consulting me.

You can always reach me at icliniq.com.
