Small purple dot at end of incision. Any suggestions? (photos)

medoc
1 month post-op. Initially looked like it had puss in it but the yellowish color went away and it looked purple. I tried to squeeze it to release any blood that was inside.Nothing came out. What was it? Is this normal? Will it scar?
