Hi,

Welcome to Healthcaremagic.

The symptoms you have could be due to external ear infection like Otitis externa.

This does cause discharge and if untreated can lead to internal ear infection by breaking open te ear drum.

Do apply Gatiflox ear drops twice daily 4 drops into each ear.

Hope I answered your query.
