Treatment For Ear Infection With Discharge
My son had tubes put in his ears about 3 weeks ago due to chronic ear infections. He did wonderfully and continues to. But tonight I noticed he had some drainage coming out of the left ear. He says it hurts. The drainage is kinda tan colored with a horrible odor. He goes in a week for his post-op f/u, so my question is should I wait or go ahead and take him in...? Thanks!

These symptoms indicate ear infection and requires treatment by the use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs..
Do consult your ENT doctor for examination and treatment accordingly depending on the underlying cause.
