Can we use  2 ear drops alternatively after 6 days of operation  and ointment to put in suture area what does it do

After ear surgery, the type and timing of ear drops and ointment depend on the exact procedure performed and the surgeon’s plan. Ointment prescribed by your doctor is usually applied over the suture line to aid healing and prevent infection, but ear drops should not be started, changed, or alternated without confirming with the operating ENT, especially if any ear packing or wick is present. If there is increased pain, discharge, swelling, fever, or hearing reduction, please consult your surgeon

Ointment that is prescribed by your doctor can be applied over the suture, it helps in healing and prevents infection. Coming to drops it depends on the operation you’ve undergone. Don’t apply drops without consulting especially if a cotton wick is kept in your ear DO NOT REMOVE IT on your own to apply drops.
