Brief Answer:
Vaginal wash with antiseptic

Detailed Answer:
Hello


I understand your concerns about smell and bleeding.

1. The smell you are getting is likely to be due to some blood clots and wound.

2. This might take a week to heal approximately.

3. Till then you need to wash vagina twice daily with antiseptic lotion ( especially wounded part of you or your partner can see it).

4. I suggest not to have intercourse for next one week to allow healing.

Let me know if you have any more queries.
