I have clear liquid draining from my ears

Hi,
I was told that instead of using a qtip I should buy the spray bottle for ear cleaning and mix hydrogen peroxide with water and clean my ears that way. It felt good a couple of times but my drainage persisted. I then read that I shold keep my ears dry and use ear plugs in the shower to keep the water out. I go to the dr and they bring out the same solution I read not to use! My drainage went away after the 3rd round of antibiotics but wass told it won't last like neither of the other 2 did. After a couple days, the infection returns. It's baterial and resistant to antibiotics. I used to say my ears were only good for hnging earrings on, but nowadays I can't even do that!!!

Thanks for your input....

Fortunately, the antibiotics got rid of my inner ear infection. So far so
good, just hoping the infection doesn'r return.

Meanwhile, I've had a bladder infection, for which antibiotics were
prescribed. Those don't appear to have done the job. So, tomorrow it's back
to contacting the VA in hopes of coming up with a solution.
