I scratched an area on my chest about a month ago when nothing was visibly there. Must’ve been just itching there so I scratched it, and it started to bleed profusely, I mean like a huge 3” in diameter blood stain on my shirt. I had to use liquid band-aid to get it to stop and only could see like a small pin hole where the all the blood was coming from. Now I have a red bump on my chest.

After reading the symptoms on the internet, it sounds like what is referred to as a cherry angioma bump. If you pick this thing it will bleed like someone just stabbed you with a knife! Harmless, but can be removed by a doctor if needed. I will have it checked out anyway and probably have it removed.

Anyone ever had one of these red bumps?

You read the wrong symtoms on the internet.  It is caused by having black rifles.  Send them to me.  Being the nice guy I am I'll pay shipping to my FFL.  It's the only way to be sure.

stigmata?
