Fluid: most leakage from the ear is wax or trapped water but this doesn't apply to you. An ear infection fluid is usually bloody or mixed with pus. Never the less one would wonder about a ruptured ear drum from some sort of inflammation or trauma. An ear exam by a physician or otolaryngologist would be advisable if leakage continues.
