What Causes Itchiness And Blood Discharge From The Ear?

I have spotted blood in the ear bud while I was cleaning, my ear was itchy the fresh blood was there in the morning too whan I checked with earb. It is in the left ear and I do have a little bit blurr left ear too. My ear does not hurt. But I feel like my hearing in the left ear is not clear. It must have happened since long but I didnt know. A tiny ball of blood clot had fallen out of my ear a month ago and looked like a blood clot, it was dark like old blood. Please help

Hello,

Might be an infected external ear canal, you might have scratched and lacerated blood vessels.

So, should consult with ENT specialist as soon as possible.

Do not clean or insert anything inside your ear canal until you see a specialist.

You need prescription meds.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini, General & Family Physician
