Does the baby have otitis media and does he need to see a doctor?

Patient's question:

Yesterday I took her for a bath, and there were no abnormal signs after coming back. This morning, while holding her to feed, I noticed yellow discharge coming from her left ear. Is it possible that it's due to water getting into her ear?

Doctor's answer:

Conduct pus culture conditionally and perform drug sensitivity tests. Based on the test results, select antibiotics for oral or injection use.
For the ear locally: If the pus is large in amount and thick, use hydrogen peroxide for cleaning, and then apply sensitive antibiotic ear drops.
