Your septum piercing developed a hypertonic scar you got rid of it by coating it with aspirin but where it once was has been bleeding a bit from time to time Is this an infection or is it just healing?

That would be hypertrophic scar which aspirin will not help. Even strong steroid creams don't help much. It usually requires an injection of a steroid solution into the scar to shrink it down. This should be done by a qualified dermatologist. Some people have a strong genetic predisposition to form thick scars or even keloids when skin is traumatized. I hope this information helps. a dermatologist

Is it bad for your belly button piercing to be bleeding?
It depends on how far along in the healing process it is. If it is a very recent piercing bleeding can be common especially if you've bumped it or snagged it on something. If is had appeared to be healing well and began to bleed for no reason, you probably just slept on it in a bad position and the fistula tore a little bit. In the later stages of healing, infection or rejection is more of a concern than bleeding.

Leave the piercing to the professionals.
