Question

Why does my ear bleed when i puke?

Answer 1

This is not a normal occurrence, it may be a form of release of some sort of pressure. How often do you vomit ?? It is " projectile" vomiting ( a forceful and it flies out of your mouth) ? Any nosebleeds ?? Is the ear bleeding slight, moderate or heavy ??? Any increased tiredness, dizziness ?? I apologize for the questions but, I'm trying to get you to think if such things are happening.

Bottom line, you need to see your Doc ASAP. He/she knows your medical history and can evaluate, perform any necessary tests and/or refer you to a specialist. There may be underlying physical condition that is causing this.

I hope that this is helpful and, please, see your Doc.

Answer 3

Sorry you're puking :-(  

Your ear is connected to your throat, so if there is forceful vomiting or any type of back-pressure up into the head when you vomit (like if you plug your nose) then the pressure might get released through your Eustachian tube, which is connected to your middle ear.  If enough pressure builds up in your middle ear, your ear drum can be compromised, either tearing or pulling away from the ear canal, and both of those things can produce bleeding.

I know this sounds weird, but try to relax when you vomit, and don't plug your nose.  Hope you're feeling better!
