Brief Answer:
Seems to be capillaritis, keep under observation

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at Healthcaremagic
I have reviewed the attached photographs and it seems to be capillaritis which might be due to some unnoticed trauma to the shoulder.
I don’t think you need to worry about it.
It should disappear in 7-10 days.
Just keep it under observation.
Regards
Dr Asmeet
