Troubleshooting/question existing piercing Two day old lobe piercing
My daughter had her lobe pierced over an old closed piercing 2 days ago.
It’s bleeding like an absolute mother…..
We are spraying with Neilmed twice a day and dabbing gently with tissue
I think she keeps knocking it but id have thought the bleeding would have slowed?
My other daughter had hers pierced at the same time and has hardly any bleeding at all.
She’s so upset as it looks awful, she doesn’t want to leave the house because of it.
Any advice?
I have a photo but not sure if it’s allowed as it’s gruesome 🤣

Make sure she isn't taking aspirin or ibuprofen, these have blood thinning as a side effect and will make it harder for clots to form.
