Hello,
Welcome to HCM
As the pus is coming out of ears,it seems to be infected.
So,keep applying the topical antibiotic ointment,along with it take full course of antibiotics like amoxclavulanate orally.
Keep the area clean and dry.Wipe it with antiseptic solution and warm water with dry cotton.
Hope you are happy with the answer.
Thank you
