Puss coming out of ear and other symptoms...

I have been having middle ear infections for the past year.
I have seen my ent, he cant diagnose whats wrong with me and generic anti biotics dont work.

I have a yellowish stinky puss coming out of my right ear mostly when the suns out and heat is hitting my face, I know I have an infection but I dont know how to get rid of it.

I was prescribed generic ear drops,However I suspect this ooze is caused by a middle ear infection, The drops state its used for outer ear infections not middle.
It also states not to use it for middle ear infections.

Some symptoms I have had for a few months include
Puss coming out of the right ear
Air feeling trapped in ears, probably due to eustastian tube dysfunction which i havent been diagnosed with yet...

My ear is constantly popping and fills "full" or "pressure" this is in both ears.

I have a hole which im suppose to have surgery for soon in my left ear, I dnt get my ears wet ever..

Point is, My case seems hopeless what can I take or buy online to treat this infection and what can be done for the air trapped in my ears...?

I had a hearing test done 2 weeks ago and the dr said she was curious as to why my eardrum didnt move in my left ear when she inserted some vibrating thing into it.

Aside from all these problems and hearing loss in my left ear due to the same infection I now have in my right ear Im still decent with hearing, But high pitch sounds are very sensitive to me and I cant be around stuff like that.

Please share your solutions, experience, and ideas as my medical insurance doctor *****.

Ear surgery for my left ear means nothing to me as this is not the problem.

I dont have tentinitus or other diseases because the hearing doctor kind of ruled that out. Im worried if this right ear doesnt get healed soon my hearing will take a huge fall.

Please help

Hello and hope you are doing well.

Look like you have developed a middle ear infection in the right ear. Have a culture and sensitivity test done to find out the correct antibiotic that the infecting organism is sensitive to and taking this medication for the required amount of days may help to clear infection.

There are tubes called 'Eustachian  tubes' which connect the middle ear to the throat, this balances the air pressure in the ears. This tube can get  blocked due to infections of the throat, which can give lead to a feeling of fullness in the ears. This can also result in infection of the ears. The blocked ears can be opened up by the valsalva maneuver, where air is blown into the cheeks against a closed nostrils, this sometimes helps to open up the tubes. Steam inhalations can help clear the tube. Please consult your family physician.  

Hope this helped and do keep me posted.
