What Could Red Dots On Eardrum With Pain While Flying Indicate?

During an airplane flight it felt as if ice picks were being shoved into my ears. After 12hours on the ground I woke up in the early morning and the room was spinning. I was unable to walk, had to crawl to the bathroom where I threw up. Also was covered in a cold sweat. I went to a walk in clinic and was told that I have red dots on my eardrum. I am taking phenagran and am still very dizzy. What do the red dots mean and should I fly on Monday?

Hi,
Welcome to health care magic
I have gone through your question; and it suggest that most likely you may be suffering from the acute otitis media. Better to avoid fly on Monday if possible.
