Hi
Your problems is not a serious one and it is quite prevalent in any community.
Even medical students faint after seeing cadaver ( dead body meant for their study) for the first time, and interestingly many of them chose surgical specialities in future.
What I want to convey that, your problem can be abolished by repeated exposure to the inciting surrounding ( blood)._ called desensitisation.
Next time when you see blood, just think that it's nothing but a body fluid like saliva or sweat and don't run away.
By repeated exposure , you will become adapted.
So, don't worry, be confident, realise and try to convince yourself that yours is not a serious problem.
Go ahead
Even with repeated attempts, if u can't manage. consult you doctor and discuss your matter
You will be alright
Best of luck
Thank you
