Hello, I was cleaning my ear with a q tip just after midnight august 21st slipped and qtip went in too far. I had immediate pain so bad I got weak and had to lay on the floor about 20 mins later pain was little better but blood was coming out. Went to ER they said my eardrum was fine. Finally last night the bleeding stopped but have pain around my ear behind and down my neck. Also have felt dizzy and not right since the injury. Will this heal on its own or should I find another doctor to look at this?
hello, thanks for your query, active bleeding after q tip injury requires just plugging of your respective ear with cotton plugso that you can protect from water and chilled climate , so that ear will not get infected.take simple pain killers, visit an ent surgeon for the evaluation after 1 week.hope I have answerd your query. all the best. take care.
