You have an ear infection. Don't use q-tips... ever. They do no good. And go to the doctor to get some antibiotics. You don't to permanently scar your eardrum from not treating the infection.

I would go see your doctor but don't panic. My boyfreind had the same problem last year and all it turned out to be was something like a pimple inside the eardrum that had burst. (sound gross I know! lol) But it was harmless.

Seriously, get off the computer and go to your local emergency ward.....NOW! Your hearing is something you shouldn't gamble with...goodluck.

It is hard to determine without looking in the ear.

Sometimes little pimples infect and ooze a little blood but for an earache to develop telegraphs that there is an infection in the middle or inner ear.

You should see a doctor and let them examine you. A clinic appointment will be fine.

If you have not had any trauma to your head, the above applies. If you smacked your head really hard, bleeding from the ear could be a sign of a concussion and then you would want to see a doctor right away for x-rays...

wiy do i care

Go the the ER ASAP u might have something wrong with your brain or u might just have popped ur ear drum. you never know but dont take any chances

You should never put anything in your ear, including qtips. See the Doctor tomorrow to rule out (or in) an ear infection.
