I injected ozempic into my stomach and somehow hit a small vein. there was some blood and a small purple bump around the vein puncture site. should i be worried?

No need to worry, however take precaution for the future, including post injection pressure for long enough to reduce bleeding. The bump should go down in a day or two, otherwise if it spreads with redness make sure to seek prompt evaluation.
