What Causes Urine Smelling Drainage From The Ear?
Hello! For a while now, whenever water gets stuck in my ear, it comes out smelling like urine. I stringly suspect its because i used a few scarves (around my head) and a pillowcase that smelt slightly of urine (when damp/wet) for a while and i dont know how to rid myself of this smell. Ive tried cleaning the ear but when water gets in (maybe from the shower) the same thing happens. Sometimes little quantities of wax in the outer ear smell the same way.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the fungal infection of ear then such smell is likely and I would advise to see the ENT surgeon because it need to be cleaned and it could be along with wax impaction, without ENT doctor treatment is not possible hope this information helps.
