Little boy keeps getting an ear like this. Worse in the morning . Other ear fine nothing coming out of that at all. Fine in himself. Is it an infection or will it clear itself?

The picture isn't too clear so I can't tell what's leaking. But any discharge from the ear needs seeing by a GP. Could be infection, could be a burst ear drum. Only time my daughter has had discharge from an ear it has been a burst ear drum.

Yes, as pp has said, please see a GP.

Thanks will ring in the morning. As he has been ok in himself didn’t think the gp would be interested

GP should be interested. My little one is prescribed antibiotics when his ear is leaky. Currently awaiting ENT appointment to investigate recurrent issues. Hope it clears up soon :)
