General & Family Physician,  's  Response
hi.

I wanted to know what type of cancer it was, and whether it was related to the cervix or such. But if not, then it could be related to an infection, or probably even age-related. I really cannot say as I would require a more elaborate history from you.

But I doubt the popping would cause the bleeding you have indicated, but it also depends on the location of the seen bleed and the amount. please visit a doctor or write to me using our premium service so we can discuss things in a more detailed manner.

Best wishes.
