Hello
Thanks for contacting HCM.
You are parent of 3.5 year old baby girl. who have pus discharge from ears, is it from inner aspect/external. If it is external then it should be because of ear piercing.
If it is from inner part then we need to consider Furuncle, acute suppurative otitis (ASOM).
The antibiotic prescribed by the doctor should be helpful, in either of the case, complete the course of it for 10 days.
Keep your baby's ear dry, make sure water does not enter ears while bathing.
Take care
