hello dear thanks for your query at Hcm
yellow and foul smelling discharge from ear it could be due to infection in middle ear .
its the pus that is coming out of ear
get one swab pus for culture and sensitivity
donot let water go into infected ear keep it dry
get yourself examined by ent specialist for hole in ear
start on antibiotic tab cefixime 200 mg twice daily
