How to stop bleeding from the ear, teach you 5 quick ways to stop bleeding

Many friends often experience itchy ears or the feeling of foreign objects in their ears. At this time, they will use their fingers or ear picks to dig their ears, and they will find that all they dig out is blood. They dare not dig their ears with their hands anymore. However, they feel that their ears are still bleeding, and time is running out and they cannot go to the hospital. Today I will teach you how to quickly stop bleeding from your ears.

1. First of all, we need to consider the issue of hemostasis. We can use ordinary household medical cotton balls, take out the cotton balls, roll them into strips, and gently insert them into the ear canal. Allow the cotton to absorb the blood flowing out of the ear canal to prevent it from flowing into the ear hole. If you can’t absorb it all at once, take a few more times.

2. Secondly, carefully feel the feeling of your ears. If the bleeding has stopped but the ear still hurts, or even there is tinnitus, it is likely a problem with the eardrum and you should go to the ENT department of the hospital immediately for treatment. If after stopping the bleeding, you observe the cotton pad and find that the blood is not very deep, it is possible that the bleeding is just from the skin of the ear canal.

3. If the bleeding has stopped and it is determined that the bleeding is only from an abrasion on the skin of the ear canal, you can consider disinfecting it yourself. You can go to a nearby pharmacy to buy medical iodine-containing disinfectant cotton balls. If the bleeding is from the right ear, turn your head to the right and gently insert the cotton ball into the ear canal to allow the iodine to cover the surface of the wound and form a protective film. Be careful not to squeeze out too much disinfectant, otherwise it will flow from your ears into your mouth.

4. Some friends may have alcohol on hand. Can it be used for disinfection? It is recommended not to use it.

Because medicinal alcohol can be used to disinfect the skin, but if there is a wound, it will be a bit painful. Can be used if skin is not broken.

In contrast, iodine tincture is a widely used skin and mucous membrane disinfectant that can be used to disinfect broken skin. I recommend using iodine. Before use, check whether the ingredients contain alcohol and use alcohol-free iodine.

5. After disinfection, your ears will still feel strange. Do not touch them with your hands, ear spoons, or cotton swabs to prevent the wound from expanding or becoming infected and inflamed.

After a while, tissue fluid will flow out of the wound in the ear canal. Don't worry, just continue to absorb it with medical cotton.

If there is nothing unusual, just wait for the wound in the ear canal to scar and it will heal in a few days. If you have any other problems, see an ENT doctor immediately and do not handle it yourself.
