Can I Use Amacar To Stop Bleeding From Tongue Piercing While Being Diagnosed With Mild Hemophilia Type A?

Okay so I have mild Hemophilia Type A and I've gotten several piercings in the past and been able to manage the bleeding. Now I have my tongue pierced and it's been bleeding on and off for 2 days now. It stopped for about 6 hrs and then came back. I used amicar before to stop the bleeding when my wisdom teeth were pulled. I don't feel like spending $80+ on another scrip. Now, I've tried the sea salt water, gauze, and applying ice, I'm wondering if there's anything else I could possibly do to stop the bleeding or if I should go in and get another scrip. (ps it's light bleeding but still produces small liver clots.)

Hello,

First of all i would advice you not to undergo such unhealthy practice.

Please do consult with your physician prior to administration of Amacar tablets.

Always inform your dentist regarding this prior to any dental procedure .

Vitamin c as well as iron supplements has to be administered.

Plenty of fruits as well as nutritional supplements has to be ingested.

Also monitor your bleeding time as well as clotting time regularly.

Take care.
