What Causes Itch And Bleeding In Right Ear Drum?

My right ear drum itches and is often plugged. My right nostril bleeds for no reason. Nothing happening on the left side. I have been to an ENT 4 times with no answers. They did hearing tests. Normal. Have done a camera scope, also normal. What is going on here?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have you have itch and bleeding in right ear drum. Well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to many reasons like ear infection like otitis externa , excessive wax buildup or injury like eardrum rupture. Need not to worry. You should not touch or prick inside ear. Apply slight warm compresses. I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper examination . Doctor may order tests like CT scan and examine ear with otoscope . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics gentamicin for at least for a week along with anti inflammatory and anti allergic . For now keep your ear dry , apply dry warm compresses on external ear and cover it while bathing . It will usually take one week to recover .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
