Hi,
You have two different problems, the one is related to wrist, its surgery and so on, your second question pertains about the extrusion of a chunk of hard material with blood from ear.
The most probable cause I can think about are as follows:
The hard chunk is most probably a wax with smear of blood or the layer of wax that may look like dark blood.
Another reason can be fluid from middle ear pushing hte hard, blood may be from the tympanic membrane.
I would advise you to consult an ENT Surgeon for this to be properly examined, see the ENT and find the cause and get treated accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. T. Chandrakant, ENT and General Surgeon
