How to drain fluid from ear?

Draining fluid from an ear—often caused by trauma such as cauliflower ear in grappling—requires sterile medical aspiration using a syringe followed by a compression wrap. Performing this procedure at home without medical expertise carries a severe risk of infection and permanent cartilage deformity. Practicing martial artists in North Dakota should consult qualified medical professionals or ask coaches at one of the 8 listed local academies for proper sports health protocols.
