Mine never bleed. The symptoms are just like any other ob. Only the primary itched with me. Usually the site swells a little bit and feels irritated, then the tiny blisters develop, which are very sore, then after a day or so they open up into one sore that covers the area of all the tiny blisters, and then within 3 days they start to heal. After 2 or 3 more days, they are gone. I put garlic oil on them and so avoid much discomfort. (You can make garlic oil easily by cutting one section or clove of garlic into quarters, putting it in a small container, and covering it with olive oil. Cover with a lid and let sit a couple of hours. Then just dab it on with a q-tip. I use mine until the ob goes away, then discard it.) I also tend to wear a dress with nothing underneath the first few days (if possible.) The less that rubs down there, the better. I wash very gently.

Bleeding sounds more like hemmorhoids.
