What Causes Liquid Drainage From The Upper Ears?

For a few months now, I ve had some scaly dead skin and clear oozing liquid coming from the cartilage of my upper ears. I ve had scale in my ear canals as well and have been led to believe by various specialists that it s eczema, which is entirely possible. The oozing liquid has me baffled, though. On another note, can head lice live in the inner and outer ears?

Its not lice. Its a serous Discharge. My advice to you is you consult an ENT specialist . It has to be seen by an instrument called otoscope which ENT surgeons have and they will give you the required medications and advice.
