How To Stop Bleeding And Thick Red Mucus From Ears?

My ear has been itching and after scratching it, it is bleeding. I even have a very thick clotting/ thick red mucus coming out. But I have no pain. What should I do to stop the bleeding? I have just been putting a piece of tissue barley inside the outer ear to catch the blood. It seems not to want to stop bleeding.
