^-- Blood blisters? Are you sure they are not simply bromide pimples? They look like bright-reddish, semi-transparent warts/pimples. You can't remove them but they fall off in time. It can take a few years for the body to clear it out of the fats and tissues and if you get any from other sources like store bought bread or meat you'll get more pimples as once the body is caught-up it will immediately remove it. Also urine will have a foul smell if detoxing (bromine comes from a word meaning foul smell).
If that is the case, the body is simply removing bromide/bromine in the body (often stored in fat). As iodine/iodide is not very reactive it takes time to remove fluorides, chlorine/bromides - which is where 'salt loading' comes into effect.
Most people are pretty saturated with toxic halides/halogens and it takes time for the body to clear them - years. The other 'symptoms' you listed sound also like classic detox symptoms.
It takes time - start slow and work up. 20+ years ago I started with just 1 drop of 2% Lugols (Iodine plus Iodide is 1.0 + 1.5 = 2.5 mg). After a month or two I went to two drops and so forth.
These days if I want to remove parasites or nano-tech (Morgellons is an example of early nano-tech) I use SSKI as it's clear (non-staining) and tasteless I can easily go to 800mg (0.8g) for a few days without any detox issues. Before Gates destroyed natural medicine the therapeutic levels were in the 1g to 6g range supervised by a professional. The FDA 150ug dose is IMO designed to keep a person alive but sick much like most 'modern pharmakia'.
I also use (10-Mule) Borox (1/2 TSP in my morning coffee), salt-loading (Celtic or real salt) and sometimes selenium along with it. I don't do this everyday - I take my dose for a few days then time-off. Usually I take about 8 drops of 60% these days, lol, 20+ years ago the detox from that would have killed me!
I make my own SSKI (potassium iodide) - usually 60% now (42mg per vertical drop of iodide).
Read upon it, for example, iodine/iodide will chelate many toxic metals like mercury something to consider if you have mercury fillings.
