Answers:
Sounds like the same thing that I did when I was a kid and it healed without any infection!. Just keep it clean and medicated and I am sure it will be fine!. A doctor wouldn't do anything else!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
If you keep it washed, it shouldn't get infected!.
If it leaked blood, it was just the clot splitting!. The skin on your knee is very stretchy and has to be due to the bending of your leg!. The wound starts to clot up after a while to stop excessive bleeding!.
If that was pus, or a clear liquid, then you might need to pay more attention to it!. Call the doc if it swells and is red or is green!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

to prevent it from getting infected, apply peroxide to it using a cotton ball!. it will burn really bad, but will increase the healing time and kill any germs that may cause infection!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
