Yes it has grown wider. About a year ago I noticed that it was oozing. It was little blood and fluid but it was not fresh blood, of very little quantity. Mostly it is a smooth blister. Sometimes gets uneven with a vent like at present. Images have even been sent to you.

Yes, it has increased in thickness over time.
