RE: [SPAM] Blood in ear the past few mornings

[Guest guest]

My son (age 9) has had the same experience in recent

weeks. According to his doctor, it is his eardrum trying to heal

itself. It is a long story as to what exactly is going on with his ear,

but he basically analogized it to when you have dry, chapped lips, and your

lips will get hard and crusty, then the dry skin breaks off and you might have

bleeding with that. Same type of thing.

I hope this helps!

Hi all. I had a large C-toma removed October

27th. I have been getting

really crusty ear wax that needs to be scraped out each morning.

Except the last 2 mornings I have noticed blood. It seems to be mixed

with earwax because it comes out a dark brown reddish color. Anyone

know why this may be happening? I haven't really slept on that side

yet either as my ear is still numb and sore. Any ideas or follow up

with what I should be expecting right now? Also, still have the

ringing in my ear and can't hear too well/ Thanks! I appreciate

anyone's help and/or suggestions!
