What Causes Constant Drainage From The Ears And Headache?

I have a constant feeling of drainage coming out of my ear yet there is nothing that ever comes out. There is also pressure on that same ear and headache which have been there for 6 weeks straight I have had 2 antibiotics and there is no differences I am miserable and worried something serious is wrong.

Constant drainage from the ears and headache seems to be due to middle ear infection, ear wax deposition, trauma with Q-tip and swimmer's ear. I would suggest you to avoid touching or pricking ear with any sharp object. Avoid using excessive mobile from that side. Consult ENT specialist for proper checkup. Doctor may order CT scan or examine ear with otoscope and may prescribe antibiotics like gentamycin , corticosteroid ear drops along with anti inflammatory medications. Keep your ear dry and apply warm compresses on external ear .
