A month ago you asked about treating penile herpes. Recurrent HSV2 outbreaks are usually in more or less the same area every time, give or take an inch or so. If your penile outbreaks have been confirmed as herpes, it is unlikely that's also the cause of the problem of your gluteal cleft (butt crack).

Bleeding doesn't help one way or the other. Any skin wound with a scab, herpes or anything else, can bleed if the scab is removed prematurely.

I wouldn't know it it bleeds but I do know that it can come up in some crazy areas.
