Suggest Treatment For Bleeding From Scar After Surgery Near Tailbone

Hello, I had a surgery about a month ago to remove the skin from my tailbone that could cause cysts to form. It had healed up well with no problems. About a week ago I went for a walk and when I got home, the middle of the scar was bleeding. I cleaned it and put antibiotic cream on it and covered it. After 2 days it stopped bleeding. Then a day later it started again then stopped the next day. Now 3 days later it started to bleed again. What should I do?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
I advise you to take rest. And apply a povidine iodine solution on scare and allow it to heal completely. Sometimes a immature scare rupture on walking or due minor trauma. Finally end with 'Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help". For Follow up questions, end with "If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish you good health".
