Is Sore To Touch Lump Inside The Ear, Oozing Blood When Popped Concerning?

Hi, I have had a lump inside my ear for the past few days, it has been sore to touch so I have avoided it. It is inside at my tragus? Tonight it must have popped as blood randomly started trickling down my ear, no puss, only blood! Should I be worried?

Hello!
i think you should get it checked by an ent doctor as to find out what swelling it is!
only blood is not a good sign and may indicate a more serious infection , hence meet your doctor soon!
thanks
