A member asked:

Ear canal abrasion still slightly bleeding after 2 days. was told to keep dry, but my ears naturally are more wet. i already use ear plugs in the shower, dry outside right after, & since i cut my inner canal, i wear cottonball. any other suggestions?

Ear canal : The skin overlying the ear canal is very thin and sensitive. If you have an abrasion, you can rinse the ear canal with a normal saline solution twice daily and try to keep the area open to air and clean. Allow the abrasion to heal on its own without any Q-tips or other instruments that may stirrup the abrasion and keep it from healing.
