HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really understand your concern, the report of CT is suggestive of some lesion inside the middle ear and in surrounding areas the chances of viral infection is very likely, nothing to worry about this, this will be alright within few days, I think antibiotic has got very little role, its okay if you stop that, take good care if child, and have good time
