Health Information - Discharge of smelly yellow fluid from the ear can be caused by two factors, namely Otitis externa or inflammation of the outer ear which can cause symptoms of pain in the ear, discharge from the ear, itching, redness and swelling. Next is otitis media, which is inflammation of the middle ear, accompanied by symptoms of ear pain, ear feeling full, fluid coming out of the ear, fever, hearing loss and so on.
Treatment for ear infections, both middle and outer, is generally carried out by cleaning the ear canal and administering medications such as painkillers, antibiotics, anti-inflammatories and so on. Therefore, to get the right treatment, you should consult an ENT doctor. The doctor will first carry out a physical examination to determine the cause and determine the right treatment for you according to the basic condition.
The following are suggestions that you can do:
- Avoid picking your ears with any objects, including cotton buds
- If pain occurs, you can take pain relievers such as paracetamol or ibuprofen
- Avoid getting water into the ears (for example when swimming, bathing, etc.)
- So hopefully it's useful and get well soon.
