Yeast ear infections usually have a black discharge and are caused by the bacteria Staph and Pseudomonas. Ears can also be noticeably thickened due to swelling caused by the infection.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p><noscript><iframe loading=\"lazy\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-thU59bNmfw\" width=\"560\"><\/iframe><\/noscript><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"what-causes-moisture-in-dogs-ears\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_causes_moisture_in_dogs_ears\"><\/span>What causes moisture in dogs ears?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Sometimes the moisture is produced from within the ear. For example, dog allergies and cat allergies can cause these animals\u2019 ears to secrete moisture and become inflamed. This inflammation then allows bacteria and yeast to grow in larger amounts than normal and potentially cause an ear infection.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-92YK8FrQa0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"does-water-in-ear-go-away\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_water_in_ear_go_away\"><\/span>Does water in ear go away?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Trapped water usually goes away without treatment.
