Neuroanatomy - cranial nerve question (find the lesion from the symptoms given)

Q. A woman presented with the symptoms of (a) deafness, vertigo, and double vision (diplopia). She also suffered from severe headaches, which were increasing in frequency and severity. During the headache attacks she vomited several times. She was found to have (b) right internal strabismus and there were a (c) flattening of the skin furrows on the right side of her forehead and a drooping of the right corner of her mouth. There was evidence of hearing impairment in the right side and (d) sensory impairment on the right side of the face. Explain the signs and symptoms that are indicated by (a) through (d) and determine the location of the lesion.

Neuroanatomy: cranial nerve problem. Where is the lesion?

A 65 y/o man develops (a) subtle slurring of speech, combined with a (b) loss of pain and thermal sensation on the right side of the face and left side of the body. A careful examination reveals that he has (c) paralysis of facial muscles on the right side involving upper and lower portions of the face.
