Is there a problem with my ear? I have a history of otomycosis

I've had a history of otomycosis (quite severe about a year ago and a bit mild last month)

Last year, they prescribed clotrimazole and one other which I forgot.

Last month, they prescribed Neomycin sulfate.

I've had headaches for almost 2 months now and I can't pinpoint the cause, I was just wondering if it might be related to my ears or if I'm imagining things.

Age: 23

Sex: M

Duration of complaint: around 2 months? (check post)

Any existing relevant medical issues (if any): Headache, Astigmatism

I recently bought this Otoscope that I can connect to my phone since it seems I'm prone to this condition.
