What Causes Ear, Throat Infections And Headache In Condition Like Morganella Morganii

Rare, commonly associated with brain abscess.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I had gone through your question and understand your concerns that you are having ear infection.
As such, Morganella morganii is considered to be an opportunist pathogen, causes community and nosocomial infections.
This microbe must be suspected when a patient with brain abscess secondary to otogenic infection is being treated.
You do not have brain abscess, to get feared of this organism.
Do not worry. It is a simple infection, can be managed by medications.
In my opinion, chronic ear infection (18 months) needs to be evaluated with otoscopy (status of ear drum), audiometry (status of hearing). Kindly evaluate.
Hope this answers your question, if you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
Wishing you good health.

Detailed Answer:
Hello again,
Thanks for considering my answer and for your follow up.
I can understand your concern. The dizziness and nystagyms denotes labrynthitis. It is one of the complication of chronic ear drum infection (CSOM) with perforation in ear drum. Brain abscess, a serious complication of csom, is where a patient is toxic with altered sensorium. He/she may have fits. Luckly you don't have those symptoms. Therefore I am not fully convinced you have Morganella morganii infection unless it was proved with microbiological tests.
Continuous ear discharge with smell suggests active mixed infection. It requires change of antibiotics (oral/aural) and anti vertigo medications. As already 1 week over, practice vestibular exercises (dizziness) and need time for compensation of another ear.
This progress of treatment is best monitored and managed by an ENT surgeon. I will urge you to meet one if you haven't consulted one yet.
Hope, I have answered your query.
Take care.
