Can Headaches And Light Pink Thing On The Q Tip While Cleaning Ears Have Any Correlation?

Well, I haven't been sick lately but I just got out of the shower and cleaned my ears out. When I checked the Q tip there was a light pink substance and I believe it was blood. I haven't had any infections in that area before but I have been having a few headaches if that has any correlation.

hello. it is highly unlikely that they are related. but the bleeding (light pink substance) from your ear is not a good sign and i would recommend you meet your ENT doctor soon. thanks
