Hard to say: Blood is usually a reflection of tissue injury. Where/what was injured in that area is hard to pin down without looking. Perhaps you can position a mirror & light in a way you can see. Most such scratching produces a shallow tissue tear that self heals. Just keep the area clean.

No: If you donated blood a month ago, you should not be having pain. This would most likely be from phlebitis or irritation to the vein. I would have someone take a look at this or call the facility that drew the blood.
