Answers:
She will be less likely to bleed after if she doesn't tense her muscle. Actually you no longer have to aspirate before giving the injection so you did just fine.

no it is common for a little blood to come out of the injection site. that's why doctors usually press a cotton ball on the spot where the needle was right after removing it.

It's perfectly normal and no cause for concern. Gentle pressure with a gauze pad immediately after withdrawing the needle can minimize this, but it does happen. People who take aspirin or other blood thinning medications bleed longer, so that might be a factor as well. Keep helping your aunt, you're awesome!

That little blue spot was probably a small blood vessel under the skin. When you gave the injection, the needle hit that blood vessel - that's why some blood came out.
