Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain pain in ear along with discharge of yellow fluid seems to be due to ear infection and the yellow liquid seems to be pus..
I would suggest you to consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like Otoscopy can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..
You can be advised to take a course of antibiotics, anti inflammatory painkiller like Ibuprofen, and along with it antibiotic and analgesic ear drops can also be advised..
You can also be advised decongestant nasal sprays..
You should limit exposure to excess water like swimming..
Avoid picking the ears as well as exposure to loud sounds..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
