Frequent Ear Infections Ignored by Doctors, Now Blood in Ear

tldr: blood in ear, doctors not listening in the past about frequent infections So I've had an ear infection for a week or so now. I get them often-- doctors tell me to just wait them out at this point cause I get them so often. but this time I thought I'd clean out my ears using a professional tool with a camera on it to maybe help at least with being able to hear better? but I found (what looked like a huge, but probably small since it's a small camera in my ear) a pool of blood in one ear, and then the other was so inflamed my partner (who was helping me) couldn't really clean it at all. so now I'm very anxious, my ears hurt really bad, and I've had a migraine for several days and now im starting to get physically sick like throwing up. is there anything I can do about this other than see a doctor, since they all just kinda push me out and say "deal with it"? or am I not treating this severe enough? should I be more concerned than I already am? idk. any advice would help.

I would definitely see a doctor if you have blood in your ear and are having the other symptoms along with it. I'm sorry the doctors aren't taking you seriously, I've been through that a lot myself lately. Definitely worth getting checked out, just to be on the safe side. Hope you feel better soon!
