Suggest Remedies Foe Yellow Fluid Drain Through Both Ears
I continue to have a fluid discharge from both of my ears. I have tried antibiotics but the results are very slow or not at all. The fluid drains in to the outer ear recesses. It produces a yellowish crust as it is removed. Thank-you. Michael Alley, Shelbyville, Indiana.

HI madam, ear discharge can be due to external or middle ear infections, if it is not responding to antibiotics then please do consult an Ent specialist so that discharge sample can be taken for culture and sensitivity, so that specific antibiotics can be put depending on result of the test and for correct diagnosis. Meanwhile avoid water entry to both ear by plugging the ear while taking bath, Take care.
