Should I Be Concerned About Ear Bleeding?

I was putting on what I thought was a toy stethascope, when I realized it was a cat toy? Well anyways, I pulled to take them off and the right side went about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch in my ear. My ear has been bleeding for about 20 min. Should I be concerned?

Hi Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum .
Your clinical history is suggestive of trauma to skin of ear canal.
I would advice you apply antibiotic ointment at the site of injury , Keep ear dry ,don’t allow water go inside while bath. If you don't allow water to go inside it will heal.
If you don’t get relief , you should concerned , ENT examination become essential.
Hope this information helpful.
