Hi,
Nothing to worry, there might be having minor injury or scratch might have caused bleeding form external ear.
Damaging of eat drum is less likely.
This is not so serious as you think.
Before you reach ER put some cotton gauze tightly on bleeding point.
This will stop bleeding.
Ok and take care.
