Red splotches inside kitty's ears...

My kitty seems to have reddish purple splotches on the inside of his ears. He had a bad flea problem when I first got him and I'm still attempting to treat it (though it isn't as bad) and I'm wondering if the two are related, or what I should do?

Is he scratching his ears at all? Ear mites and ear infections can cause inflamation in a cats ear canal (and at times make their eyes runny and make them sneeze). Is there any dark gunk in his ear canal as well?

Also, if a cat shakes their head violently they can end up with small hematomas on their ears (they kind of look like bruises).
