Ear Bleeds?
Have any of you had non-trauma-related ear bleeds before?
I had some minor bleeding yesterday from my right ear. I am a bit concerned. It did happen immediately after I turned up the volume on my headphones to drown out some annoying noise in my office. So that gives me a clue that my tympanic membrane might have ruptured a bit.
However, apart from a ruptured eardrum, the second most common cause of ear bleeds is malignancy... I need a consult soon. @paul suggested the Buffalo otolaryngology group on Delaware. I wonder if they take Aetna.
PS: I now absolutely hate Rochester accents. :/
