About three months ago I developed a large cyst on a side of my cheek. Unfortunately, I couldn't stop touching it and rubbing it all the time, which caused bleeding of the cyst more than several occassions.
Currently the cyst is not swollen however there is a defanite raise of the skin there. However, that isn't what troubles me - The colour of the skin there is purple (and it covers a noticable amount of skin) and even has dark purple specks which I think is where it was bleeding from.
I have consoluted a dematoligist a while back, and he said that he *thought* it was bruising under the skin and will clear up in a couple of months. However, I see no possible sign of improvement from when the colour developed.

Has anyone else had this problem? Can anyone give me advise? Does it go away? %-)

Thanks
