Tiny Red Bumps On Forehead Bleeding And Forming Long Lasting Scabs When Scratched. Any Ideas?

I have these tiny red bumps i have like 5 of them to the upper left of my forhead if i scratch them they bleed and then a scab comes then if i wait for like a week or two the scab is still there and if i take it out it bleeds again then looks like its not even topical. It looks like its underneath but yet causes a topical scab and i have like 5 or 7 of them on my upper left forehead maybe its just acne but i am worried because the first time i never touched it and when i decided to scratch it a scab formed and now the scabs wont go away i have waited a whole month before removing the scab to try again. nothing has changed no irritation no decrease in anything no increase nothing. Nothing seems to work. I have been researching and trying to find out what it is. No one seems to have an answer so i am asking now.
