Hi,

It seems that you are having a bad habit of ear picking.If i were your treating doctor ,i would have advised you to apply an ear drop containing ciprofloxacin in the required dosage.

Avoid ear picking and do not let water enter your ears.Try to keep it dry as far as possible.

I would also suggest you to go and consult with your ENT surgeon so that he can examine you once properly and prescribe you the required drugs.

Take care.
