What is the cause of bleeding from ear picking

There are two etiologies for bleeding from ear gouging: external ear canal damage and tympanic membrane damage.1. Because the external ear canal is deeper and narrower, inadvertent operation during ear hollowing can damage the external ear canal wall, which is more sensitive to pain and also prone to bleeding because of the attachment of blood vessels and nerves to the external ear canal wall. If blood is found, the patient first needs to go to the hospital for local cleaning to remove the blood pressure, and also needs to use dry cotton balls for local compression, which can be cured in 3-5 days in general. However, during the treatment period, the patient cannot ban water from the external ear canal and cannot repeatedly pull out the ear.2. Tympanic membrane damage, which is usually in the loose part of the tympanic membrane, can cause bleeding from the external ear canal, hearing loss, tinnitus symptoms, and dizziness in severe cases. Treatment of acute tympanic membrane perforation can be self-healing, but patients need to take oral anti-inflammatory drugs, such as cefixime and roxithromycin to avoid local infection. At the same time, the patient should not blow the nose forcefully and should not enter the water in the external ear canal. 1 month is generally possible to heal by itself.
