What Causes Ear Bleeding After Cleaning?
Question: Hi I've just been cleaning my toddlers ears and one started to bleed. Do I need to take her to see a doctor? It has stopped.
Brief Answer:
Yes, see a docotor
Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for using health care magic.
In my opinion bleeding after cleaning in the ears is a sign of injury or infection. It may be in the outer ear or may be a perforation of the ear drum and from middle ear.
It can only be determined after ear examination with an otoscope.
I would suggest you see a doctor for proper examination and treatment accordingly.
I hope I have helped you
