You mean the top of your fingers where the nail is?
If so i'd say so.. keep playing and you might get calluses (sp?) and that should stop the problem..
Or superglue it.. the coat of glue should be strong enough to prevent bleeding.

That's very strange. You must have very weak skin. Presumably you'll learn not to hit your finger after a while, but maybe you could protect it with something. Superglue or one finger cut off a glove, maybe?

I don't understand why they call them fingers; I've never seen them fing.
Oh, wait. There they go.

sounds to me like you're playing too aggressively and too recklessly.
you should take a step back, think about your technique, clean it up, precision is important.

try making ur fingernail line receed (like... the same thing hairlines do) that way u'll play with meat. unless U've got weak meat.... i doubt it'll bleed....
