Hi,
Thanks for query,
She got injury inside ear while cleaning leads to blood.
The injury may be to its wall or to tympanic membrane so called ear drum.the wall injury is not serious but if injury to drum is there it is a concern.
You must check her ear with ENT he will examine & confirm any injury to ear drum & it's conduction.
have a nice day.
