Hi,
It seems that due to q-tip stuck hard in external ear might have caused some soreness or cut in external ear producing bleeding and ear pain.
Put antibiotic ear drops and put cotton bud with pressure.
This will stop bleeding and prevent infection.
Next day remove the cotton bud carefully and put antibiotic drops.
Ok and take care.
