General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
13 months to have a single persistent problem is a long time to suffer from and this is due to lack of proper medical consultation and investigations and treatment.
The commonest causes of a persistent sinus for 13 months in the groin which opens up repeatedly with bleeding can be :
Tuberculosis.
Fungal infection
Bubo.

I would advise you the following:
Take a consultation of a General Surgeon.
Proper biopsy to prove a diagnosis and to treat according to the histopathology report.

Proper treatment would help you to get a proper healing and cure.
