Hi,
It seems that there might be having heavy deposition of fungus in external ear.
It might be painful removing fungus without doing local part numb.
So doctor might have advised scrapping of fungus under local anesthesia.
There is no need of having empty stomach while local anesthesia.
Ok and take care.
