Ear Started Bleeding After Using Ears Gauged. Worrisome

Hi. I ve had my ears gauged for about two weeks, with a size 8. I just got some new Acrylics, and I cleaned them good before I put them in. My right ear lobe went in smoothly, but when I put my left one in, it went in smoothly then just started bleeding . What is this suppose to mean? Throughout the two weeks I ve had this size, it s never bled. I m really concerned.

Dear patient,
Bleeding from ear indicates a injury due to insertion of a foreign body. I would advise you to get you ear examined by an ENT surgeon to confirm the injury if any and find out the extent of it.
Take care
