I was chagrined to find an unknown bleeding after showers. The first time I couldn't figure it out and then the second time it seemed to be when I dried the scrotum after showering. Here is a link that I found to be a source of explanation and relief

I suffer from this condition from time to time. I notice this after I shower usually after i dry off. I get these tiny red bumps out of nowhere and if i pop them i bleed like crazy but the bleeding will eventually stop. Then later if i accidentally rub across that area again it will start bleeding again and the red bump usually returns and I'm right back where i started. I am not sure why this happens but I am very healthy and have been checked for anything out of the ordinary and was issued a clean bill of health. So I decided to to wait until the bleeding stops and put a spec of superglue on the spot. Sounds crazy i know but it works like a charm. No more bump!
My biggest fear is bleeding to death if this occurs during sleeping.
I am on blood pressure med.Anyone else ?if so which one?
Happened after the morning shower and called in sick for work with excuse of pulled muscle in lower back which, although true, the real reason was too embarrassing, especially not knowing it was a common occurrence.
Many thanks to Doug and thank god for the internet. It's incredible how ignorant we all were before it brought people with common concerns together.
ps Also used the super glue. Thanks to the other posters for that tip.
