Hi,

Welcome to HCM,

I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.

Iny opinion you are are having middle ear infection, where pus pouring out through perforation( whole) in ear drum. you also have co existent pharyngitis( sore throat).

you need to visit an ent surgeon for proper evaluation with otoscopy and definative treatment.

Mean time, do not allow water to go inside the effected ear, do salt water gargling.


Hope, I have answered your query, all the best, take care.
