Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Yellowish discharge after surgery means that the incision would has not completely healed and infected. Oral antibiotic like Augmentin and local antibiotic cream like Soframycin to be applied over the incision site might help. Don't clean ear by self. Don't allow water to go inside ear.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
