Hi,
I understand your concerns.
It is normal for scar tissue to get sensitive from wiping. Perhaps your wiping tissues are causing such allergic reaction to your scar tissue.
However, it is not normal to get bleeding from the scar tissue. I advise to consult with the doctor who did the intervention (surgeon) to evaluate the status of the scar and local skin condition.
Try not to use wiping tissue. Instead, thorough water rinse can be a perfect choice.
All the best!
