Could Influenza Causes Bleeding From Ear?
I was diagnosed with Inflenza A two days ago. Today I've had some slight bleeding from my left ear. Could the two be related? Should I make a repeat visit to the doctor's office ( I don't want to infect others unnecessarily.), and how long does the flu usually last? I've had cold symptoms for over a week, but no fever until early yesterday morning.

The bleeding from the ear can be surely due to Influenza infection. Please consult your doctor. The viral symptoms generally last for upto a week.
