Clean and monitor: Clean the area with soap and water, rinse and dry. Apply polysporin (bacitracin and polymyxin) to the immediate area - cover with a bandage. Monitor to make sure the redness and swelling does not expand. Some minor bleeding / oozing may continue for a couple days. If redness worsens, if you have new fever or if there is significant or worsening bleeding see a doctor to ensure you don't have a skin infection.
