What Causes Black Mass In Ears Along With Painful Ears?
My sons ear drum was scratched almost an month ago went to the ER Dr said it was a small scratch. He has a black mass in his ear and says his ear still hurts, would thus be his scab and is it still normal for the ear to be sore? And how long does it take to heal?

Hi,
I have gone through your query; it suggests that your son may be having the scab in the ear drum due to the blood clots.
Avoid putting water, oil, ear drop and ear bud in the ear of your son.
Thanks
