I'll speak to HS. If you call a common (offensive) foul for the elbow then you wipe the basket and give the ball to the fouled team. If you call an INT then you wipe the basket, have the fouled player shoot two free throws, and give the ball to the fouled team at the OOB location nearest where the foul occurred. Same thing if you call a flagrant and you disqualify the fouling player. If you don't call anything then you can't do anything after the fact except deal with the blood.
If you call an INT or Flagrant then you have to deal with the blood before the free throws. The coach can either take a timeout to keep his player in the game to shoot the free throws, or select a sub from the bench who will shoot the free throws. Same is true if you don't call anything and then notice the blood -- timeout to keep the player in the game or immediate sub.
