Hello,
Thanks for the query,

Probably you are having a low platelet,

Minimal trauma is obvious during sexual intercourse.

Specially in the groin area.

You dont need to worry musch, just get platelet levels checked.

Please meet a dermatologist for exact treatment.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.
