Dear Redrastachick
Hello I am Dr Ravinder Sharma ENT surgeon. It appears that you have chronic infection of Mastoid and Middle ear . There is a history of mastoiditis to support this as a cause. It appears that now you have developed intracranial complication of chronic suppurative otitis media. However a complete work up is necessary for coming on to the right diagnosis. Do let me know if I can help you further with regards Ravinder Sharma
