Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
It is usual for the part to become red if scratched by the blunt handle
Probably there may be slight bleeding under the skin or subcutaneous tissue.
Definitely it will vanish without any problem.
Nothing to worry.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
