What Are The Chances Of Eardrum Perforation When Blood Came Out With Ear Bud?
In order to remove ear wax I used ear drops for a number of days and earbuds to remove the wax. Four days ago the earbud came out with a fair amount of blood on it. Over the last four days I have used the ear drops without the ear buds. Please let me know 1) the cause of the blood 2) whether the eardrum could have been perforated and 3) whether I should continue using the eardrops.

hello
The cause of the bleeding can be a damage to your skin lining of the ear or the ear drum and i cannot tell you the exact cause without examining you.I would like you to stop all ear drops and meet your ent doctor as soon as possible , so he can examine you and guide you further.
Thanks
