What Could Sudden Popping In Ears Followed By Little Pink Watery Fluid Discharge Indicate?

Hi, I haven t had any trauma or preexisting conditions to my ears. I was just sitting on the couch when my left ear popped like I was experiencing an elevation change and then it felt like it was a little wet. When i felt it there was a pink watery fluid on my finger. It was just a little bit of fluid. I am not experiencing any ear pain or other symptoms, however I am concerned.
