I often bleed excessively after I use the lancet. Blood runs down my finger, my palm, and onto the surface I’m testing on. It stops quickly, but it makes a mess!
Excessive bleeding after using the ReliOn Premier BLU lancet could be caused by repeatedly pricking the same site, which may lead to pain or thickened skin (calluses). It is recommended to use a different site each time to avoid this issue.
