Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

It is possible that your father had a skin wound from an injury the scalp or an insect bite, Please clean the area and have a detailed look at the site of bleeding. Use pressure continuously for 15 minutes to make it stop and then take him to the doctor.If you have any antiseptic cream at home then please apply over the region.

The scalp is made of rich vascular tissue below the skin and even a small injury causes a lot of bleeding to happen. Please apply ice cubes for some time if the above methods do not stop the bleeding. Please do not worry.
