Can Barely Hear On Right Ear. Q-tip Has Blood On It. Had Ear Infection. Suggestions?
I caught the flu and got an war infection 6 days ago. Just finished my last dose of antibiotics and can hear much better but I think I damaged my right ear by putting too many qtips in it too far. Now I can barely hear out of my right war and when I stick a q tip in it a very very small part of it has blood on it. Will this go away on its own? The best way I can describe the feeling is that it feels like that ear is clogged. Should I be concerned?
I have gone through your query regarding loss of hearing from your right ear and most likely you have damaged your right ear drum by piercing by q-tip.
Though you are feeling as your right ear is blocked and it is similar to situation as observed in eustachian tube dysfunction.But you have seen blood in q-tip is suggesting trauma to ear drum.

Can Barely Hear On Right Ear. Q-tip Has Blood On It. Had Ear Infection. Suggestions?
Hello Thanks for writing to H.C.M. I have gone through your query regarding loss of hearing from your right ear and most likely you have damaged your right ear drum by piercing by q-tip. Though you are feeling as your right ear is blocked and it is similar to situation as observed in eustachian tube dysfunction.But you have seen blood in q-tip is suggesting trauma to ear drum. To treat this you should do- (1) Take antibiotic orally. (2) Keep ear clean & dry. (3) Don t put any ear drop to your ear. (4) Decongestant. This conservative treatment may treat you but if it fails than surgical intervention will become necessary. Regards.
