Question
My friend was cleaning my ears when I suddenly felt an intense pain, discovering blood droplets at the edge of my ear. I still have a slight pain afterward. It hurts when I yawn, but I feel comfortable when holding my breath. Could it be that the tympanic membrane was injured? How should I handle this situation?
Answer
Hello! Ear bleeding in children is an important issue, as it is not only related to the eardrum but also to the brain. Therefore, you should pay great attention to this situation and seek a check-up at a pediatric specialty hospital. According to my understanding, I don’t know how old your child is, but doctors are not allowed to clean earwax by hand; instead, they use rinsing methods. I suggest you actively seek medical attention to draw attention to this matter!
