Hi,
Having bleeding after cauterization for a day is common due to soreness on the part and some induration.
Now as bleeding is stopped, nothinmg to worry.
Within 2-3 dys local lesion will be healed up.
Meanwhile do not try to remove crusts of blood which might cause some bleeding.
Apply ice pack if needeed.
Ok and take care.
