One of the biopsy areas is still bleeding some. I've changed the bandage, put the polysporin on it, and put a clean bandage on it , but the bandage has blood on it again. Is this normal? The stitches all look still in tact. The instructions I got said to call if there is swelling, puss, the area feels warm or increased discomfort.. but it doesn't say anything about if it continues to bleed some.

A small amount of bleeding wouldn't be unusual for a few days, as long as there's no yellowish or sticky oozing. Keep it clean and coved with the polysporin and a bandage while it's bleeding.
