Hello and welcome to HCM,
Frequent urination is commonly due to urinary tract infection (UTI).
I suggest you to get a routine urine examination to look for evidence of infection.
In case there is evidence of urine infection, urine culture needs to be done to identify the infectious agent.
If the urine culture is positive, drug sensitivity test needs to be done to identify the most appropriate antibiotic effective against the bacteria.
Crust in the ears suggests accumulation of ear wax.
I suggest you to consult an ENT specialist for clinical assessment of ears.
In case there is accumulation of wax in ears, it can be removed by a procedure called syringing.
Bumps on head needs to examined whether they are any kind of lymph node enlargement or simply soft tissue swelling.

Thanks and take care
