Bleeding ears

Question

Bleeding ears

Asked for Female, 32 Years

My grandmother noticed that her ears are wet. Then she discovered it's blood. So we kept putting cotton balls in her ears to see how severe. Every half an hour we remove cotton n saw it's still shows blood spots. We looked inside and we can see there is still fresh red blood. It's not oozing out but it's enough to leave spots on cotton every few minutes. It's been about 6 hours now. She has swelling on that side of her cheek. Slight headache or heaviness in her head. Slight pain increasing now. She also uses hearing aids. Please suggest a remedy or what's the cause? Should I be worried?
