I've had this intermittent clear ear drainage problem for about a month.

It started after a cried for about 2 minutes a month ago.. the next morning
I noticed white globs of stuff in my right ear. I used a cotton swab to
clean out... then I noticed clear, foul smelling drainage.

This went on for a week, then went away. it came back, so I saw my doctor.
He prescribed Zephrex and Zithromax.. he said my ear drum was inflamed.
The doctor also said that I was congested.

Some greenish foul smelling junk was cleaned out of my left ear.

Now after that, and finishing my Zephrex and Zithromax, BOTH ears are
draining clear fluid, much worse now! In the day time I hardly notice it,
but at night time I wake up with both ears dripping fluid. The ear canals
itch. There is no foul smelling stuff now.. just clear water draining from
both ears and the fluid is of a sticky consistancy. And now my nose runs
each morning also, plus now I have a sore throat.

What is going on with me?

fyi, I have been also diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis in the past 2
weeks.
