### Patient: Doctor, recently I have been noticing a mass on my ear and bleeding from my ear. I am also experiencing nasal congestion and redness in my ear. What could be the reason for these symptoms?
### Doctor: Based on your symptoms, it seems like you may have a cholesteatoma. This is a non-cancerous growth that can develop in the middle ear due to accumulation of skin cells. It can lead to hearing loss and other complications if left untreated. It's important that we schedule further tests to confirm the diagnosis and come up with an appropriate treatment plan.
