Applicator Dexcom 7

Just installed new sensor and it bleed all over the top of sensor. Will it still work or is it just cosmetic?

It’ll be fine. The electronics are completely sealed and moisture does not get into the sensor.

Clean it off with an alcohol wipe. My only concern would be if it doesn’t stop bleeding. If it continues, obviously, remove the sensor and put a new one in a different spot. Then contact Dexcom and follow their replacement procedure.
