Fluid discharge from left ear
Watery fluid discharge from left ear since last week. I consulted an ent who prescribed ciplox drops. I used it as per his instructions for three days and fluid still keeps coming sometimes. This once happened in right ear 2+ years back and doc prescribed some drops starting with letter ‘z’(I don’t remember the name) and the problem stopped. Can you please help me stop this watery drain in my left ear?
