Hi..

If there is wound ear canal then it can very much a cause of bleeding from the ear..

If you put cotton bud again and again it can further cause delay in healing due to repeated injury.

So first of all stop picking the ear again and again..

Take another week course of antibiotics and antibiotic ear drops..

Avoid using headphones and also excessive water exposure to ears..

Avoid usimg ear buds repeatedly..

Avoid exposure to very loud sounds..

Hope I have answered your query.
Please let me know if I can assist you further..

Regards.
