Daughter’s ear bleeding

My 6y/o has woken me up this morn because her inner ear is bleeding quite a lot and she can’t hear out of it.

She had a grommet put in almost a year ago. And I’m wondering if it’s something to do with that or an infection. So now I’m wondering whether to ring the doctor and if he will even see her?

Another thought is that I am seeing an ENT consultant on Saturday myself and perhaps I should take her with me for him to look at her as well. I’m not sure.

She has endless trouble with her ears, her other ear perforated about 6 weeks ago :( just not really sure what to do.

Sounds like a burst ear drum and a severe infection to me. Call GP first thing and they will probably prescribe antibiotics over the phone from the symptoms. Does she have a fever?

Yes second that. Please call GP as sounds like it could be infected. Poor thing
