What Causes Blood Drainage From The Ear Of An Infant?

My 22 month old got into the trash. I didn t notice before she shoved a Qtip into her ear. She now won t stop crying and it s bleeding. What can I do at home to help soothe her? Should I take her to the ER would it be bad to dump a little peroxide in her ear then rip it to drain it?

hello there..
blood discharge from ear is a sign of injury and I don't think you should try to help her at home.Visit ER as soon as possible .Don't do any manipulation at home by yourself.Its better to go to the ER and there doctors will decide further management.
