Hi, Dr Purushottam Neurgaonkar here. I welcome you to HCM VIRTUAL CLINIC. I have gone through your question, and I think I have understood your concern. I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.
1 ) First of all do not panic.
2 ) apply pressure with clean cloth or cotton swab at the bleeding point. Once bleeding stops after 3 to 4 minutes , you can apply local antiseptic ointment.
3 ) Skin tag near vaginal opening is normally seen in many women, but please get it confirmed from your doctor if tag near anal area is not a thrombosed pile
Please take care not to pull out these ski. Tags.
I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks
