Yes, it is. If you do it will get infected anyway. Because you cleaned it too much, who knows how many chemicals that have gone it to it. These chemicals are in the cleaning products that people thought were ok, chemicals that could have you in pain and if left unchecked for long enough you could have it amputated. Think clearly about this.

yes because if you clean it to much you may be able to get an infection. _________________________ Note: It is not the chemicals going into the wound that would cause the infection, the chemicals are after all anti-septic, anti-microbial, and some are topical antibiotics. The cause for the infection from over cleaning would be because the wound never fully closes and begins to heal properly. This means that any bacteria that contacts your piercing could enter it. Recommended cleanings are 2-3 a day.

Is it normal for an industrial piercing to bleed almost a week after its been done?

Bleeding is normal for any piercing. A piercing is a wound, and wounds bleed. The only way it would keep bleeding rather than heal is if you pick at it or play with it. Dont play with it! Also, do not overclean it. Dont clean it more than once per day, and clean it with antibacterial soap. If you are using salt soaks or salt water, stop!! This is irritating to your piercing and can severely dry it out.
