Suggest Remedy For Blood Draining In Ear Drum

My right eardrum has been draining bright red blood for the past hour. I experienced very intense pain before the bleeding started. I've been dealing with a pretty bad cold for the past week before this happened. Is this something that needs immediate medical assistance, or will it heal on its own?
