Bump On Right Ear,bleeding,infection?

Lately I have been noticing that my right ear has a small bump in it that is leaking raw blood . I want to believe it s not an infection , but it might be. It is very light bleeding and if I lay on my right ear for an extended amount of time, the bleeding would get worse. Is it an infection? Also, this has been going on since January. Thanks!

hi
welcome to HCM

bleeding bump? in your right year for almost 4 months is a matter of concern,
first of all a chronic otitis media or an otitis externa should be ruled out before going on to rule out any malignancy
keep us posted on the developments
