Put antibacterial stuff on what you are wrapping it in, and not on the ear itself, I'm a bit worried that the more moisture there is the worse it will get because bacteria love warm and moist environments to grow.
As for the blood, it is possible that you were coughing so much and so hard that you popped some blood vessels in your lungs, but the way you are describing it it sounds like it could also be a lot more then that too. Regardless of whether or not it's just from coughing it's still a serious situation (blood in your lungs is never a good sign) and you still need to see a doc about that too.
The doc only asks questions because he cares about you. 
And because this really can't said enough:
I'm very sorry you are worried about the doctors but it is the only way or else it is going to get a lot worse.
