Suggest Remedy For Bleeding From Ears In A Child
Hi, I was cleaning my 7 year olds ears, with an earbud, I put it in too far. She cried for a minute but was ok, but when she was lying down I checked it & there was blood in here ear. I wiped it with a wet cloth, it has not bled again since & she says it s ok & not sore, should I get it checked? I m worried it will bleed through the night?

Hi.... I suggest you get the consultation of an ENT surgeon regarding this. I suspect that there could have been an ear drum perforation or it could be an injury to the external ear canal. Whatever it is, to diagnose the condition it needs a simple procedure called otoscopy where the ENT surgeon will look inside the ear and decide what to do.
