Suggest Treatment For Pain In Ear And Bleeding

I have been having a little pain in my left ear followed by minimal bleeding. A few days ago I felt the pain again and the q-tip I gently placed in my ear came out soaked in blood. I am getting a bit concerned. What might this be and what should I do?

Hi,
It seems that you might be having some infection in your external ear giving this problem.
There might be having boil or some soreness of the part giving blood stained q-tip.
Clean the ear gently with q-tip and put antibiotic ear drops for 2-3 days.
If there is not much improvement, then go for one antibiotic medicine course.
Ok and take care.
