Is this an ear infection or a weird growth to be concerned about?

Question

I had started to get this weird inflamation in my ear about 6 months after I was diagnosed with IBS. I thought it was just a clogged ear or something like that. But then it started to get worse after 2 weeks and then it became a liquidy substance in my ears. I had it checkd out by the nurse after 1 month of it not goin away. She told me after checkin both ears and throat that she could see a cheesy white substance in my right ear. It sounded like a weird growth to me. Will, it hasn't gotten any better. And now when i clean my ears out w/ a cottom swab, there isn't just wax, but at times a yellowish/white liquid on it. Can anyone tellme what it might be please and how to get rid of it?

Answer 1

go to the doctors and tell him/her about what happening. your ear cannel could be clogged with a lot of wax. or it could be infected and its fluid coming out of your ear. when you have a bad ear infection fluid can come out of your ear.

Answer 2

It sounds like infection and the cheesy substance sounds like candidiasis.  Candida is normally present in most people.  Check with your doctor about this.  You need an otic anti-fungal.
