Hello, my 15yr old went swimming the other day and started complaining about her ear, so we put the reg store bought eardrops int her ear. It felt better for a day or so but then she went swiming again and now there is white gooey stuff that I can see but can not reach to remove.
It may be ear wax or middle ear discharge in acute otitis media. Avoid swimming, avoid entering of water into ears. Please consult your ENT specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly.
