Right ear problem
For quite some time, my right ear itches randomly, and when I itch it, and lay down on my left side, it suddenly feels like the insides of my right ear are filled with fluid and my ear gets blocked, and it starts itching even more. After some more itching, white semi fluid comes out.

Hi, I am Dr. Atul Kumar Nimawat MS ENT.
Your symptoms suggest a possible chronic otitis externa or fungal ear infection (otomycosis). Itching, blockage, and white discharge are classic signs. Position-related symptoms may indicate retained moisture or mild middle ear involvement. Avoid inserting objects into the ear and keep it dry.
Next Steps
ENT specialist for ear examination and cleaning.
