no, not season, it is a sign that she has an irritation like mange or fleas. Get her to a vet to find out what it is and then follow the treatment. Sooner ratehr than later because if it is mange it is very very hard to treat once you let it take hold. The poor girl sounds like she is being driven crazy by itching and it has now caused a bad infection.

It does sound as if she's coming into season. If she does, remember to keep her away from all male dogs for the whole 3 weeks (preferably longer to be on the safe side) & not just while she has a discharge.

Yeah sounds like it to me. best thing to do is take her for walks on her lead and make sure male dogs dont get near her.
its probably best if you take her out to not go to a park or open fields where other dogs may be running free...accidents do happen and it will be you that has to sort it!

Im not sure. My dog did that but it was because she had allergies. She was just scratching her belly. I'd reccomend taking her to the vet. Just in case, ya know?

that sounds like it yes, my Labs get a bit grouchy and their nippls swell and look sore jus before they come on. its normal. the whole thing shouldnt last more than a couple of weeks.
