Brief Answer:
Sinus infection has got cured.

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for posting your query.

I am Dr Sudhir Kumar, Neurologist, and I would try my best to help you.

I have noted your clinical details as well as CT scan findings. Based on this, the sinus infection (sinusitis) affecting mastoid and sphenoid sinuses has completely healed. In addition, signs of past surgery are noted. There are no acute findings at the time of scan.

In summary, CT scan does not show any significant clinical finding.

I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.

Wishing you good health,
