My 6 year old son had a bad ear infection. When I bought him to the doctors I was told he had a bad ear infection. So bad he had a blister on the eardrum.
The next day blood was leaking from his ear and he felt better. Is this normal? Has this happend to anyone's child?

It probably just means it ruptured...and yes, it feels better after that happens. It's happened to me the last few times I've had an ear infection. Although, it was pus, and no extremely noticeable blood.

So he doesn't need to have it closed up or anything?
