What Causes Yellow Liquid Discharge From Ears?
I have had clearish/yellowish liquid running out of my ears at night and only at night. It has been going on for months now. I have allergies and I am taking some Zyrtec and benadryl at night. I have tried everything I know to fix it. It will dry up and then come right back. What is going on? I am 36, 5 7 , female, 195lbs, I have hypothyroid, borderline diabetes and PCOS.
