Hi, the causes of ear discharge can be due to infection, barotrauma, injury etc. Many organisms are responsible for ear infection and discharge of fluid. It would be better if culture and sensitivity test done for the discharge.
If there is a sensation of ear blocked, then it can be due to barotrauma i.e. pressure changes in ear during a plane journey, oxygen chambers or deep diving in the water. The injury in inner ear leading to perilymphatic fistula.
If infection suspected, it will help to rule out the causative organism and appropriate antibiotic therapy (topical) can be started. Along with it anti-inflammatory drugs will help to alleviate the condition.
You need to consult an ENT specialist. You have to get the surgical procedure like myringotomy and other drainage procedures, if Doctor suggests. Take care and regards.
