At this critical moment, a substance called histamine in the body comes out to help, and they reach around the capillaries near the wound, making the capillaries bigger and thicker, so that the blood flowing in the capillaries naturally increases greatly. The red blood increases massively and changes the color of the wound, which is why the wound is always a little redder than the surrounding area.
