Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems like you have an infection in the middle ear and the sticky fluid seems to be pus secondary to infection..
The fluid accumulation behind the ear drum leads to reduced hearing tendency and you need to consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated and an Otoscopic examination as well as culture of the discharged fluid can help in confirming the diagnosis and treatment can be planned accordingly..
For infection in ear oral antibiotics as well as antibiotic ear drops and decongestant nasal sprays can help..
Draining of pus can also be advised and performed by the physician..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
