A ruptured eardrum can be quite a painful experience, but most of them heal within a few days. It happens when there is a tear or hole in the ear's tympanic membrane. If the pain does not subside within two days, please consult with your healthcare professional.
Things that can cause a perforated eardrum:
- Sudden loud noises
- The use of cotton buds
- Pressure changes
- Head trauma
- Direct ear trauma
- Ear infections
