i would like to tell you that these symptoms of your brother refer to bacterial infection of ear ...........this infection cause effusion of fluid and this yellowish discharge he had..............the effect of infection should be taken seriously as in some cases this may cause temporary hear loss or damage of ear and permenant hear loss...so treatment should begin as early as possible to avoid these effects...........the treatment mainly with antibiotics such as amoxicillin as it is very effective in ear infections........ ..my advice is that your brother should consult ent specialist for drainage of fluid and discharge.....take care of him ..he has agood brother...thanks
