Spontaneous bleeding on humira

I had an embarrassing moment at my Hairdresser's. I got what I thought to be a pimple on my nose a week ago-- it's healed up and just became just a bit of flat mark. I took the Humira shot today, went to go get my hair done but in the middle of speaking the spot, which looks just like a dark patch of skin (not raised at all), just started bleeding for no reason. I hadn't touched it or antyhing. The hairdresser was pure class--just handed me a cotton ball with Witch Hazel on it to sop up the blood -- has anyoone else had this kind of thing happen? Could it be related to the Humira shot I had that day?

Bleeding is a risk with Humira but that seems excessive if you really hadn't touched/knocked it. You should see your doctor though and get bloods checked for clotting times.

Thank you--I wondered if I should broach it and didn't want to if it was just me being a worry wart...
