Bleeding under skin
I noticed a small spot which was red in my thumb finger(almost in the middle of thumb print area). When I tried to see if there was anything stuck inside using a tweezer, it started bleeding and took sometime for it to clot. Everytime the top layer was even slightly touched, it was bleeding for 4-5 days. Used bandaid until it got healed. Top skin covered it, But the red spot dint disappear. Its been a month and still it is red inside. It has slightly bulged and painful when touched. Is this something to worry about. If I press it out, blood comes out. Am I bleeding under the skin? How should I deal with this? I am a mother of 8 months baby.

Nothing to worry. I suggest seeing a good dermatologist for review. It might need electrocautery.
