Talk with your doc: I hear you. Time to get those ear bumps checked out -- especially since they keep coming back. Good question.

Depends: I've seen sensitive bumps that bleed in the ears before. Sometimes they turn out to be a mild bacterial infection, sometimes it's an acne pimple in a funky spot, and sometimes it's fungus. In any case, have your doctor look at it.
