Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I sometimes go and have my ear flushed out bc of hard wax and this time I went lastnight and the Dr flushed it a few times. Got some wax put but he could see more in there. So he took a long plastic piece in my ear to try and grab it, but he didn t have any light shining in my ear to actually see where he was poking. It hurt extremely bad! And after he did that he said my ear is bleeding a little. Send me home with ear drops to soften the wax and I ll be going back Monday for another flush out . Why is my ear bleeding now? It s never bleed before when I ve had this done. I m super scared he did something he shouldn t have.
The causes of bleeding from ear is from :ear cleaning by your healthcare provider.this type of causing bleeding ear is from irresponsibility of the doctor but even a doctor is human he can make mistakes
I suggest you go to another doctor so he can evaluate it.
A thorough ear examination is necessary in every case of bleeding from the ear. If the tympanic membrane cannot be visualized, immediate evaluation by an ear-nose-throat (ENT) specialist is mandatory to assess for mobility and perforation.Cotton-tipped swabs can be very dangerous to ear health and should never be used in the ear canal.
Hope this information will help you Best regards
