Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

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

As per your complain itching in ears along with leaking ear are indications of ear infection and the fluid coming out seems to be infectious fluid pus..

It needs to be treated with antibiotics as well as you should always disinfect or ear pieces of the headphones to prevent infection reaching inside the ears and also avoid sharing the headphones with others to prevent infection..

I would suggest you to consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like otoscopy, x ray etc can help in diagnosis..

You can be advised antibiotic and analgesic ear drops along with oral antibiotics and painkillers..
Nasal decongestants like Xylometazoline can also be advised..

In case if still there is continuation in fluid discharge then manual drainage of ears can be done..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
