Hi and thanks for the query,
Your daughter may be having ear infection.
Due to infection when the drum ruptures there will be bloody discharge.
Pain will be very severe but will be relieved when the drum ruptures.
She will need a pain killer.
She may require an oral antibiotic and local ear drops.
Other general measures to be followed are.
1) Keep her ears dry. water should not enter the ear.
2) Do not probe the ear or try to clean the ear.
Ear infections are very common. Nothing to worry. If treated early and adequately the drum heals perfectly.
Regards, Dr Kishori.
