Operated left ear six months ago and pus formation stopped, but last Saturday again the pus started flowing from the same left ear. Why? Can you explain in brief and the diagnosis for it please.

Can't say accurately without examining the ear..but most common possibility is that you might have developed perforation in the operated ear.visit your doctor for confirmation..
