I thought blood too. But glad you got it checked out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dark-red-ear-wax#post-842575 Sat, 08 Jun 2013 23:37:22 +0000 Kemma 842575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe she just scratched herself in the night? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dark-red-ear-wax#post-842564 Sat, 08 Jun 2013 23:17:05 +0000 BeachMama 842564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just an update....took DD to the doctor the day after this and her ears were fine. Must've just been ear wax. Very strange. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dark-red-ear-wax#post-825213 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 13:22:58 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 825213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD had wax that looked like that after her tube were put in. I was convinced it was blood, but the pediatrician said that it was excess fluid mixing with the wax in her ear. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dark-red-ear-wax#post-825211 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 13:19:43 +0000 BeachMama 825211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Irunforfun - yeah I was kinda worried that something crawled in her ear and bit her. But it eases my mind that she's acting normal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dark-red-ear-wax#post-825199 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 13:04:05 +0000 pl0508 825199@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Looks like dried blood to me :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dark-red-ear-wax#post-825195 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 13:01:52 +0000 jmarionsmith 825195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>that definitely looks like dried blood. if you can't find a scratch or bite that would be a source of the blood i would call the doctor back and ask about a busted ear drum. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dark-red-ear-wax#post-825192 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 12:56:42 +0000 IRunForFun 825192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That looks more like dried blood than ear wax to me, although that could just be the picture...I'm not sure. Could she have had something like a cut or bite in her ear that she scratched and caused to bleed? Maybe you could e-mail the picture to the doctor... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dark-red-ear-wax#post-825156 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 12:30:11 +0000 BeachMama 825156@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD woke up this morning with dark red stuff on her ear. She's acting totally normal and hasn't acted like her ear hurts. We called the pediatrician and they said it's probably just ear wax. Has anyone ever seen anything like this?? </p> [attach=2021/13/mns0mc.600x450.ear.jpg]
