Ear wax and reduced hearing

2021-06-26 16:56:15
My son is complaining that he is having slight trouble in hearing for past few days and occasional pain in ears. His ear wax is coming out with fluid like substance and it's so smelly when touched. For all these issues online consultation will work or have to check in person. Thanks in Advance.
