Foul smelling ear and blood

2017-12-18 20:34:49
Hi! so maybe this started about less than a week ago. whenever I use cotton buds on my right ear, it comes out with blood and foul smelling. I also have a reduced audition in that ear but it's just because it's clogged. is it serious? should I go see an actual doctor?
