My dog's inner ear is red, but she seems fine. What could it be?

Question

My dogs left inner ear is a little red. I noticed it yesterday. She's acting fine though and isnt messing with it. What could it be? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | spayed | 30 lbs

It could be from an allergy or the beginning of an ear infection. If it persists then she should be examined by a vet for treatment. She may need an anti-inflammatory and antibiotic to treat the problem.
