Suggest Remedy For Bleeding Ear In A Child
Hi, I cleaned my 3 year old ear with a cotton bud earlier and she moved and the bud went into her ear. She cried and said it hurt and then her ear started to bleed. I cleaned it with a wipe and it appears to have stopped but was wondering if I need to take her to the doctors? She seems OK now and has gone to bed without complaining about the pain. Thanks
