What Causes Bleeding From The Ears?
I just used a cotton bud to itch my inner ear because I ve had a pain in it lately, which recently turned into an itching sensation. After using one cotton bud to itch the canal, I removed it only to find it full of blood. Nothing but blood. No wax, pus, etc.

blod from ear is from two sources, either from the ear drum or from the external ear canal. the most common cause is however the external ear canal as it is more prone to trauma when one is cleaning the ear from wax,. avoid use of sharp objects to clean the ear, use topical antibiotics for few days.
