I have severe shoulder and neck pain after a mole fell off. Is this normal?

hollygirl77Jan 4, 2017
I had a mole on my collar bone that became sensitve and itchy. Then it began to hurt, so i put a bandaid over it so my shirt would stop irritating it. It began to bleed. I replaced the bandaid evey day for 3 days. The 3rd day i removed the bandaid and the mole was gone! There was blood soaked on it. Ever since then my shoulder and neck have throbbing continuous pain.... Is this normal?
