This has happened to me many times, do not worry!. The skin does not reach its usual pigmentation (the one your are used to seeing) until it hits the surface so what you saw was young skin, developing skin, if you will!. If you have hydrogen peroxide you can pour that on it!. It does not hurt and it kills bacteria, disinfecting the wound!. The bandaid was a great idea!. Good thinking :)
Neosporin will help it heal more quickly with a lighter scar so you might consider that instead of the polyspporin, which I am assuming is nothing more than a generic neosporin!.
Until your parents come home just relax and chill, you will be just fine!. You did a great job taking care of it :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Not to worry it's just a layer of skin!. You did the right thing with the antibiotic ointment!. You'll be fine, but do tell your parents so they can take a look at it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
