Hi, Thanks for using HCM.
Bleeding from ear could be due to injury to ear by trauma , foreign body or sudden pressure changes., Or Infection in ear. You need to get examined by doctor. First we need to know weather its clear blood or discharge mixed with blood coming out. Sample from your ear discharge needs to get examined for organism. Presence of foreign body needs to be removed under vision. Any infection needs antibiotic and anti inflammatory medication.
Hope this helps you.
Regards
