Hello,
Your symptoms could be suggestive of a cholesteatoma, which is a benign tumor growing in the inner ear.
A brain CT scan is necessary to examine better your inner ear. Surgery may be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka
