Blah it's five in the morning and I'm freaking out over here, so div to the rescue?
I just woke up like ten minutes ago, my ear felt itchy so I reach up to scratch it and find that my hand is wet. I figure this can't be good, so I go to the bathroom and sure enough, it's covered in blood. Don't worry though, I'm not bleeding out of my ears, just my new cartilage piercing that I got four days ago.
Now... i don't know if I hit it or something while I was asleep but I'm assuming if I had I would have felt it and woken up. Although, I wake up many times a night for unknown reasons so maybe I did. My question to you is, have you ever had a fairly new piercing just bleed profusely for no reason? I'm assuming that if it does, it's probably a bad sign. I just can't for the life of me figure out why it did this. For now I'm just letting it clot and I suppose I'll call my piercer tomorrow... Because other than it being sore like normal, I haven't had any other problems with it and it's looked healthy. I just don't wanna take it out :[
