Hello,
You need to send a swab of the discharge of your daughter ear and send for culture and drug sensitivity. According to the result, we need to start an antibiotic.
Continue giving Candibiotic ear drop in the ear as it contains both antifungal and antibiotic. Keep the ear drug. During bathing, cover the ear with cotton smeared with Vaseline.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Rajat Basak
