is the medicine zovirax or something like that? do you have pills also? do you think you could have washed in the shower a little too roughly? when i've gotten them (mine are actually herpes but called them boils for years because my husband wouldn't accept it until i made him go with me for a test last year). i do realize we get regular ole boils also. however i've never heard of bleeding. if the sore is currently open i would stop the medicine for a day then start back again and see how it does. alternatively i wish you could see or talk to a nurse or dr. but if you're on here you may not be able to do that. another thing i've found soothing is putting a warm chamomile tea bag on there for 1/2 hour; i got that from hubby- he brings me a bowl of hot water to keep rinsing & "steeping" the tea bag. when you wash just blot with a clean cloth (don't re-use until washed) / water only until healed better. the emergency room taught me that because i became allergic to soap & all ointments when i had any infections etc. it helps alot.
why is my genital boil bleeding after i put ointment on it? should i stop using this particular medication? . i have a genital boil (i know it's not warts or herpes because i am not sexually active). it is painful so i put neosporin +pain relief gel on it and the next time i went into the bathroom i found it was bleeding thought it wasn't before i put the ointment on it. should
