Picked off scab in sleep

I had a little scab in the middle of my forehead after a smallish spot popped while in the shower. Anyway at somepoint during the night, I must have scratch it because I had a lovely (not) circle bloody scab which is bigger than the dam spot was.

Any advice on getting it to clean up faster...starting new job hopefully this week.

I tend to treat my ex spots with tea tree either oil or face wash. It doesnt help make it less obvious but it does stop it from reappearing as spot when it starts healing a few days later.

There is no way this sucka is coming back - I must have had a nightmare or something because its just a lot of dried blood now

Is it dried blood or a scab? If you wash it gently then some of the dried blood around the ex-spot might come off, leaving a smaller scab over the wound.

Its sort of dried blood which is now a scab (if it comes off it will bleed again)

Dam thing is bang it the center of my forehead.
