Otorrhagia is a disorder characterized by the spontaneous and painless bleeding of the ear canal. it is caused by the rupture of the small blood vessels in the ear canal, which can be caused by injury, infection, or a tumor.

What happens during the disease - otorrhagia

Otorrhagia is a condition characterized by bleeding from the ear. it is typically caused by a disruption or blockage in the eustachian tube, which is responsible for draining fluid from the middle ear. this blockage can lead to a buildup of pressure in the middle ear and result in the rupture of a small blood vessel, causing the bleeding. other potential causes include trauma to the ear, infection, or a foreign object lodged in the ear canal.
