Brief Answer:
The dizziness may not be due to an ear infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Considering the fact that you had lots of sweating along with dizziness we must rule out an abnormality of the heart or its rhythm.

Another reason for both these symptoms may be very low blood sugars or high blood pressure.

Ear infection will not cause sweating

Please meet your physician or a cardiologist for a thorough check up.

Take care!!
