hello,
firstly about the bleeding on your husband's arm the history you have given is insufficient...it may be a boil or a carbuncle or a engorged vein...not too sure.
as for his face jerks that may be probably hemifacial spasm. you can use
baclofen10mg twice daily for 5 days for temporary relief.
but you have to consult a neurophysician and get a CT or MRI done for a permanent solution.
hope your query is answered..
