Blood from nipple after aspiration

Hi everyone. 

Sorry I’m back with more questions! 

As part of my appointment on weds I had fine needle aspiration from both breasts where they thought they saw a cyst.  Since I hadn’t felt any lump at all before on one side and was a bit worried I missed it I was having a bit of a poke and prod last night.  This seemed to cause a couple of dark red droplets of blood instead of my normal discharge. Is this normal or should I be telling someone about this? (it’s on the side they were less worried about where I didn’t have the 3d scan but the aspitate was bloody). 

Probably overthinking things.  I tried to Google to find out if this could happen but it hasn’t been much help.  They didn’t say this could happen at the appointment but they didn’t say much from what I can remember!

Any experiences would be gratefully received.
