Hello,
As you are taking medications for inner ear infection since 5 months, if there is no relief; then kindly do pus or discharge culture, complete hemogram after ENT consultation. If it is chronic otitis media, then it will be better to opt for surgery to prevent further complications like mastroditis, meningitis. At present you may require antibiotics depends upon the culture report.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Shyam B. Kale, General & Family Physician
