What Could It Be If Experiencing Pain Above Ear, Binocular Peripheral Diplopia, Headaches?
Hi. My sister, 74, has been experiencing what she thought were symptoms of an ear infection for several weeks. She also has pain above her ear and for several weeks she has had binocular peripheral diplopia. Now she has headaches. Today she saw an ENT specialist and was told there was nothing wrong with her ear. Can you shed some light on this array of problems? Thanks so much.

Thank you for choosing HCM
It seems that the ear infection is causing the issue in you. An ear infection causes the headache and acts as the trigger factor. You need to see a ENT Doctor to get antibiotics to help you. If the antibiotics do not help then you need to get a culture and sensitivity done to help you.
All the best.
Hope this helps you
