Bleeding bits

V much hoping name change worked but I am a long time poster

Over the past week I have had some spots of blood in the vulva area. It's not vaginal and I don't think it's from my urethra.

No stinging when I pee (and I am not prone to utis). No discharge. The bleeding is like bleeding from a cut - very very light but proper bright red. Think like a paper cut.

My vulva feels a bit wrong - a bit sore, a bit kind of itchy but doesn't feel like when I've had thrush. I've sent dh down for a look around and he said I have a little sore area but didn't look grazed and wasn't where the blood seemed from.

It's not enough to see the dr so was thinking I may treat for thrush just in case. Stupid idea? Anything else it could be. No activity which would have traumatised it except for a slightly rough pajama seam maybe.

Go see your GP. It will heal but if it happens again insist on getting it checked. I suffered from something similar for many, many years and several doctors had fobbed me off with different lotions and potions. At a cervical smear, different surgery to previously, the nurse insisted the GP have a look. He immediately referred me to a specialist and I saw him within 10 days.
