What Is The Green Discharge Coming Out Of The Ears?

Hello there,
I saw a Dr with my 3 year old yesterday and was told that she has tonsilitis and she was also complaining of her ears.. the Dr looked in her ears and said all she could see was wax.

She has been complaining ever since and today she has green discharge coming from the ear. What shall I do?

You daughter has developed an ear infection and this is causing the green colored discharge from her ear. Please dont worry as this is very common , especially in children and i would like you to meet your ent doctor for examination.You will need to start her on oral antibiotics and antibiotic ear drops for helping in the resolution of the infection.Please meet your doctor for the prescription.
