Ear discharge: I don't understand the last part of the question, but this is likely just dark colored wax that you are seeing on the q-tip. However, you can also sometimes have a fungal overgrowth that can give black discoloration, even though it may not cause significant pain or other symptoms. I would recommend having a physician look at it. www.mainlineent.com.
