Answer 1

Earwax (cerumen) may block the ear canal. Even large amounts of wax often produce no symptoms. Symptoms can range from itching to a loss of hearing. A doctor may remove the earwax by gently flushing out the ear canal with warm water (irrigation). However, if a person has had a perforated eardrum, irrigation is not used because water can enter the middle ear if the perforation is still present. Similarly, irrigation is not used if there is any discharge from the ear, because the discharge may be coming from a perforated eardrum. In these situations, a doctor may remove earwax with a blunt instrument, an instrument with a loop at the end, or a vacuum device.

Earwax solvents help soften wax, but they usually must be followed by irrigation, because the solvent rarely dissolves all of the wax. People should not attempt earwax removal at home with cotton swabs, bobby pins, pencils, or any other implements. Such attempts usually just pack the wax in more and can damage the eardrum. Soap and water on a washcloth provide adequate external ear hygiene

The excerpt above is from the first source below:

Perhaps there was a scratch in the ear from the first extraction of wax that dried. Blood looks brown when it has dried. Be careful ... she could have a blockage as described above. Another site suggests that objects are sometimes put into the ears and noses of children...small beans, pebbles, etc... it may be prudent to see a physician about it...hearing can be damaged permanently if care is not taken to prevent puncture of the eardrum.

Answer 2

I would not want to speculate.
It could be normal over secretion
or a developing ear infection

Make an appointment for her to see the Doctor .
Who can reasure you and explain,
what is causing the colour changes in her ear wax

Don't mess about with them, this could make matters worse .

I hope it is only a simple problem

my sister stuck an ice pick in the other little sister's ear -

Thank God it hit the fleshy part and not the ear drum

she may have stuck something in her ear -

I concur - to the Dr or emergency clinic - post haste!

Answer 4

take your child to the doctor or gp as it might be an infection/bleeding of the ear.
