Peace be upon you.
Ayatollah al-Uzma Sayyid Sistani (may Allah protect him):
In terms of purification, the removal of the impurity itself is what matters, regardless of its characteristics such as color or smell. If one or both of these characteristics remain, it does not affect the validity of the purification as long as the impurity itself has been removed. Whether what you felt as roughness is considered an impurity or not is something you must determine.

Ayatollah al-Uzma Sayyid Khamenei (may Allah protect him):
If the blood and its substance have been removed but its color and trace remain, it is still considered pure. Whether what you felt as roughness is an impurity or not is something you must determine.
