Trauma or maybe a tumor!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

CSF leaking in the ear is caused by trauma or a tumor. Only further investigations would be able to establish what the exact cause is.

Keep me updated about this. I wish you all the best and hope the exact cause would be identified and managed fully.
