What Causes Blood Blister On Chest?

I had this bump on my chest, it was the size of a pimple/zit, but it was clear and appeared to be filled with blood (had a dark red color) the next day while in the shower I noticed it was gone but I didn t see if it popped or what came out, what was it?

Hi

You seem to have developed a hemorrhagic blister over the chest.
Such a blister could have occurred due to friction or trauma to the area .
You should avoid touching or scratching the area .
Wear cotton clothes to prevent further friction.
Apply a topical antibiotic cream like neosporin or mupirocin over the lesion twice daily.
