Suggestive of middle ear infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for posting your query on HCM.
I appreciate your concern for your beloved wife.

I have gone through the problems described in your query, I am of the opinion she is having some sort of middle ear infection.

You can relieve her pain and a high temperature by using NSAID painkillers such as paracetamol and ibuprofen.
But for proper examination and a course of appropriate antibiotics ( Like Augmentine or Azithromycin for 10-14 days) she needs to be examined properly by an ENT surgeon.

Hope the suggestion given above could be useful in getting her problem treated.
Best regards.
