What happens when a water bump on a dogs ear?

I am assuming that you are talking about a Hematoma which is a build up of blood just below the skin on the outside of the dog's ear flap. This is usually caused by a trauma to the ear flap, such as shaking their head and hitting it on something. The only way this can be treated is to take your Dog in to be checked by your Veterinarian. He will sedate the dog and make several incisions to the ear flap in order to drain out the blood, then suture it back flat. This is a very simplified version.
