Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain itching and bleeding from ear can be due to a number of reasons like excessive ear wax accumulation, dry and inflamed ear canal,insufficient ear wax,otitis media, infestation of any small insect in ear , fungal infection in ear etc.
Bleeding can occur due to Traumatic injury to Ear canal in an attempt to itch with fingers or can be due to infection..
You should consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated and an Otoscopic examination can help in diagnosis..

As of now you can take anti-histamines like Levocetrizine or Benadryl for relief from itching and also do warm compresses over the ear..
Do steam inhalation.

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
