Ear bleeding treatment in prayagraj - www.entclinicallahabad.com

Bleeding from the ear is ear drainage that contains blood. The discharge may be a combination of pus, wax, fluid and blood. Although there are other possible causes, the most common cause of bleeding from the ear is a ruptured or perforated eardrum.

Your ear is divided into three sections: the outer ear (includes the external ear and ear canal), the middle ear (includes the eardrum and three tiny bones called ossicles), and the inner ear (includes the nerve endings that detect sound waves). Hearing occurs when sound waves travel through the outer ear and into the middle ear, where they cause vibration of the eardrum and ossicles. These vibrations are then transmitted through the inner ear, converted into electrical impulses, and translated by the brain as sound.

Causes of ear bleeding
Several conditions or injuries could lead to bleeding from your ear. Each of these has unique symptoms, which can help your doctor diagnose the underlying cause.

Ruptured or torn eardrum
A tear or puncture in your eardrum can also cause symptoms like:

• pain or discomfort in the ear
• hearing loss
• ringing in the ear
• a spinning sensation, known as vertigo
• nausea or vomiting caused by the vertigo

Some people will puncture their eardrum and not know it until they experience additional symptoms.
