Question about a piercing I (maybe) want

Hi everyone,
I got my first nose piercing almost a month ago, and for the past two days I’ve had some dried blood around the piercing. I wanted to know if this is normal and what I should do about it.
Should I clean it or just leave it alone?
Has this ever happened to you at this stage of the healing process? If so, do you know why?
Thanks in advance for your answers! 🙂
