Allergic reaction

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the follow up.
It's looking like an allergic reaction.
Probably scratching has caused bleed from it.
Apply a mild steroid cream like cortisone twice daily for a week.
This should help you.
It is usually available over the counter.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
