A member asked:

My ear is taking out fluid and its painful, what could be a problem?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Otitis: The reason of your symptoms most probably is an ear infection (Otitis). In your case probably is an external otitis. You need to get antibiotic treatment to prevent the infection spread to your middle ear or worse. Have a great day.
