Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
Since your husband is on blood thinners and there is bleeding from the scrotum with blood blisters.
This is very serious and needs immediate attention by you Doctor. Rush him to the ER to get all the relevant blood investigations done and to get properly treated.
Till then apply liquid povidone to the scrotal skin so that there will be sterility of the skin to get the reduced chances of infection.
I find this answer helpful
