Hi,
You need to be examined by an ENT surgeon to see if any problem in the ears to cause bleeding or it's ill fitting hearing aid or there is any sharp end (the padding of hearing aid inside canal has moved away).
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
