Preauricular sinus pit surgery for kid
Hi
My kid (12 years old) has had a preauricular sinus pit since birth. No drainage from it until recently.
We saw white fluid drained from the pit in February. It's been draining since then. Saw a pediatrician, and 2 ENT doctors.
So far he has taken 3 antibiotics so far. Taken Cephalexin for 7 days, bactrim for 10 days, clindamycin for 12 days. No relief. The drainage is still coming through. It's white and no smell. It comes when we pull the ear. It also comes when we don't pull the ear.
It's coming through the pit most of the time during the day. Mostly he will wear a band aid on that pit during the day and it comes out once we take off the band aid.
ENT said we can do surgery to close pit. But they said it's risky to do when discharge is still coming.
I am worried about going for surgery now. I am currently living outside India and planning to come to India for the surgery.
Does this need done immediately? Or surgery can be done later? having discharge for 2 months is ok?

Laryngitis since 1 month
Respected Doctor, I had cold and fever by 27 Feb and voice hoarseness from 1 march. I have taken self medication like Azithromycin (3 Days OD) and Cefuroxime Axetile (2 days BD) with anti allergic and Dolo 650 from 27 Feb to 06 March. After this I got relief only in fever and cold. The prescriptions for all the treatments I underwent during 6 to 22 march are attached. I have not taken any medication since march 22. Despite undergoing all these treatments, I have not experienced any satisfactory improvement. Laryngoscopy is also done by ENT. Still My voice is hoarse, though less so than before. After speaking for a short while, my voice begins to crack and fade. Immediately upon waking up in the morning, I cant produce any sound at all, as if mucus has accumulated in my throat. My voice clears up after inhaling steam or drinking warm water. I mostly have a dry cough, sometimes wet. At times, I experience a pulling sensation or itching in either my left or right ear. Please help 🙏
