What Causes Foul Smelling Discharge From The Ears?
My daughterjust had tubes put in her ears about six months ago she is only two years old and ever since probably a month after she got the tubes put in her ear not only continue to leak fluid but if Louis turned yellow pussy and green lookingand smells like infection it smells very foul also she shows no fever or signs of pain of any sort justand occasional tub in her ear but I do blame her you would be really annoying to me too if I had constant fluid leaking out of my ear but never in pain has she shown any signs in that manner I m just concerned about what I can do for the smell and when will the drainage stop I know that that shows the tubes out working but I have no clue that it was smell so bad it has left me confused and wondering why does it smell so infectious
