Hi
elaborate brown stuff . Is it solid wax or brownish liquid discharge. In case of wax you need not worry much. But sore throats with brownish ear discharge suggest infection of upper respiratory tract. He may need antibiotics, decongestant & anti inflammatory drugs. Give him warm liquid to drink. Avoid water in ear. If pain is there give paracetamol in appropriate dosage and visit doctor.
