What Causes Foul Ear Discharge During Night Post Ear Vacuuming?

I RECENTLY HAD MY EARS VACCUMED OUT. ABOUT A WEEK OR TWO LATER I STARTED WAKING UP INTHE MORNING WITH A FOWL SMELLING FLUID IN MY RIGHT EAR. DURING THE DAY I DON T SEEM TO NOTICE ANY DRAINING FROM THE EAR. IT IS A CLEAR LIQUID THAT IRRITATES MY OUTER EAR WITH A CRUSTY SCAB-LIKE LAYER ON THE LOWER PART OF MY EAR LOBE. I WENT BACK TO THE DOCTOR AND HE COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. ANY SUGGESTIONS?

Hi,
Having foul smell discharge indicates that there might be having some infection in the ear.
During day time there might be having discharge but it might not coming out.
But during night due to posture it might have gravitated out.
Put antibiotic ear drops after proper cleaning the ear.
Ok and take care.
