weird bleeding cat ears,shrivled and hard

Question
I have a really old cat,hes 20. Last year one of his ears became shriveled and hard. He is consistently itching it till it bleeds. Just Last December the other one did the same thing. They don't leak anything but blood. I really would like to know what this is and if you think hes in pain. Is there any thing I can do to help it?

Answer
Heather,

Congratulations on your cat living to age 20, which is pretty old for any domestic cat.

However, I am not a vet and could not even begin to fathom what is going on.  Were it my cat, I would get him to the vet immediately!!!!!

Best regards... Norm.
