Auricular Hemorrhage (bleeding from the ear canal) is caused by blood heat in the Upper Jiao, with fresh blood intermittently flowing from the ear orifice. If due to Liver Fire excess with a wiry and rapid pulse, Chaihu Qinggan Tang (Bupleurum Decoction to Clear the Liver) should be administered; if due to Stomach Heat or Kidney Yin deficiency with empty-heat, Shengdi Maidong Yin (Rehmannia and Ophiopogon Drink) is the primary formula. The general principle is to prioritize cooling the blood, which is a method of "removing the firewood to stop the boiling water." Externally, Shen Sai Wan (Divine Plug Pill) applied locally will lead to recovery.

Shengdi Maidong Yin
Shu Di Huang (Prepared Rehmanniae Radix) [Note: Text says Sheng Di Huang, so use Raw Rehmanniae Radix], Mai Dong (Ophiopogonis Radix, heart removed, each 5 qian)
Use two zhong of water, decoct until reduced to eight fen, take after meals.
[Poem] Shengdi and Maidong treat auricular hemorrhage with bright red blood, the root cause is blood heat in the Upper Jiao; decoct five qian of each and take after meals, clearing Lung heat and descending fire to ensure peace and safety.
Shen Sai Wan
She Xiang (Musk, 1 fen) Bai Fan (Alumen, raw, 1 qian) Chen Xiang (Aquilariae Lignum Resinatum, 3 fen) Nuo Mi (Glutinous Rice, 50 grains)
Grind all into fine powder, bind with wheat paste to form pills the size of Sophora japonica seeds. Wrap each pill in thin cotton. For left ear bleeding, plug the right nostril; for right ear bleeding, plug the left nostril; for left nostril bleeding, plug the left ear; for right nostril bleeding, plug the right ear; for both ears bleeding, plug both nostrils; for both nostrils bleeding, plug both ears.
[Poem] Shen Sai contains Musk and raw Alumen, Agarwood and Glutinous Rice ground together and bound with paste into pills; large as Sophora seeds wrapped in thin cotton, plugged into nose or ear to cure hemorrhage.
Chaihu Qinggan Tang (See section on Temporal Furuncle)
Ear Polyp (Er Zhi), Ear Mushroom (Er Xun), and Ear Projection (Er Ting) arise in the ear orifice, formed by the condensation of Fire in the Liver, Kidney, and Stomach channels. There is slight swelling, stifling pain, and skin breakdown; prolonged obstruction inevitably leads to deafness.
[Note] These three conditions all occur inside the ear. Er Zhi resembles a cherry, or sometimes a goat's teat; Er Xun resembles a newly sprouted mushroom, with a large cap and small stalk; Er Ting resembles a jujube pit, slender and long, protruding outside the ear. All are caused by the condensation of Anger-Fire in the Liver channel, Ministerial-Fire in the Kidney channel, and Accumulated-Fire in the Stomach channel. Symptoms include slight swelling, stifling pain, redness, and broken skin. Do not touch them; accidental contact causes pain radiating to the vertex. All cases should be treated internally with Zhizi Qinggan Tang (Gardenia Decoction to Clear the Liver) and externally with Jiuyi San (Nine-to-One Powder) applied topically to gradually resolve the lesions.
