My one year old has some fluid draining from her left ear. i was able yo use the syringe to suck some out, and it looks like mucus. what to do?

See her Dr.: Could be many things, but first on my list would be a ruptured eardrum. Probably would need ear drops and follow up to ensure proper recovery.
