Hi and welcome to Healthcare magic. Thank you for your querry.
It will go away of course. Blood usually occur when you manipulate with your skin lesions,but try not to do it becasue you can provoke infection and then it can just be worse. Now,just keep this area clean and dry or apply some antiseptic cream on it.Dont apply powder or comsetics,it will irritate this only.Wish you good health.
