Aoa.
Seems to be birth mark or capillary hemangioma.
It is a self healing condition and majority improve by 5 to 7 years
It doesn't cause bleeding.
Flakiness and dryness are signs of dry skin.
Keep the scalp moist all the time by repeated oiling and avoid scraping. This would cause more bleeding
For more info contact your nearby Paediatrician or dermatologist
