If you bleed, you call your doctor or the Emergency. Easy as that, even if you manage to stop it yourself, you should get it checked out if it`s more than a tablespoon at a time.

**edited by moderator**

day 4 - 12 are usually the worst, the scabs come off, you might bleed ect.

I`ll just say this with a song; http://youtube.com/watch?v=dLbWak32QEI
Hold on, be strong! Smile
