Patient's question:
Baby, male, 67 days old, there is yellow liquid dripping from the right ear. This has been happening for about two weeks. What could be the cause? How should it be resolved?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms you described should be considered as caused by external ear canal eczema. It is often due to water and moisture abrasion leading to the discharge of yellow fluid and the formation of crusts. You can use hydrogen peroxide for cleaning and then apply gentamicin ointment. Pay attention to preventing milk aspiration during feeding, and ensure the ears are dry when washing hair or taking a bath. This is the advice regarding the question "What should I do if a 67-day-old male baby has yellow fluid in his ears?" I hope it helps. Wishing you good health and happiness every day!
