If it was from a normal medical procedure, such as drawing blood, the puncture should close almost immediately. The nurse or technician would cover it with a Band-Aid and probably a small wad of cotton. You might see one or two drops of blood clotted in the cotton or bandage, but it will be essentially healed the first day

It usually closes within a few minutes unless it bleeds continously. Usually there is no risk of any infection at the site  unless the vein is kept cannulated for many hours to give continuous drip . Even in this situation the chance of infection is very less.
