What Causes Burning Sensation In The Ears After Cleaning It With Hydrogen Peroxide?

My child has a bright yellow/lime green discharge coming from ears as of today. She says it feel like liquid is stuck inside and having trouble hearing. Planning on going to Doc in the morning. I decided to put hydrogen peroxide in her ears and clean them a bit. She says it really burns and started crying. Why would it burn? Should I go to ER or wait until morning?
