Thank you for your question.
The bleeding is most often due to an injury or tear at the entrance of the vagina. It may take up to 7 days to settle. You need not use any medication if it is getting better day by day. However, if you are very worried and the pain is unbearable please see a gynaecologist who can help you.
For next time you might want to consider using a water based lubricant that you can buy at the chemist or online. This will help make things more slippery and prevent tearing due to dryness. Also consider reading about alternative positions and techniques that are gentler and more satisfying. You can read about this in 'The joy of sex' by Alex Comfort and Susan Quilliam.
