Hi Dear,
welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of green colored liquid flowing from ear which is due to fluid accumulation behind the eardrum and can leads to reduced hearing tendency. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated. Treatment can be planned accordingly. You should take antibiotic Levofloxacin and anti-inflammatory Levocetirizine drugs combination. For infection in ear antibiotic ear drops and decongestant nasal sprays can help. Draining of pus can also be done by physician. Maintain cleanliness of area. You should go for otoscopy examination as well to find out cause and exact extent of infection.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
