Ear pain and fluid ejection

Question

Asked for Male, 20 Years

Some 1-2 weeks back, I poked my ear to clean the wax, and after that, I had a slight irritation on my ear, which I used to shake and lessen. From yesterday it has been tremendous pain and a dark fluid like ejection is seen from the ear, which has a bad smell. What should I do now?
