What Causes A Blood Filled Blister In The Perineal Area?

The other day i had a little pain on the perineum (i think thats what it is called) the area between anus and testicals. I first noticed it when showering is felt a little swollen in a small area. Then a couple days later it was a little painful when i sat directly on it. Later it bled a little bit. And pain went away. Following night it started bothering me again pretty bad cause it felt like it was swelling again. It was like a blister or sore. I thought it was just from sweating or excessive rubbing and irritated it and when i woke up to go to bathroom the blister had broken open and bled. I showered and it stung when hard stream of water hit direct area where it broke open. it is freaking me out What the hell is it? Hasnt really swelled up again today or bothered me.
