I’ve had tubes in both my ears when I was a little girl and one fell out on its own the other I had to go in and they took it out. Years later in 2019 I went to ear nose and throat doctor and found out I have hearing loss in both my ears, but in my left ear is a hole in the eardrum from having the tubes it never closed. I was supposed to go back to get it fixed. Here it is 2024 and I could not get the treatment I needed to fix the hole in the eardrum because I lost my health insurance and live paycheck to paycheck. I started Working at a school and I lost my job probably because of my hearing and feeling uncomfortable because sometimes I just couldn’t hear what anyone would say to me, especially in the cafeteria awards . Right now I am in the process of trying to figure out how I can get help because my hearing has gotten a lot worse. This helped a lot and I hope that I can get my ear fixed and get my hearing back. My English has gone downhill as well having hearing loss is not fun. Definitely recommend taking care of your hearing. It takes a toll on you.
To everyone who watched this recently or IS watching because they have a ruptured eardrum... I was listening to this several weeks back because I had ruptured my eardrum as well and it was bleeding for a day then for 2 weeks all the fluid was coming out every now and then. Also my hearing was muffled and felt like a blockage for almost 3 weeks. But don't worry y'all. They suggested me an eardrop to prevent infection. It healed now almost. My hearing is back to normal now with some blockage that will be cleaned in a few days. Don't you worry eardrums heal BUT remember not to get your damaged ear wet even for a bit. That could cause infections that an lead to permanent hearing loss. Take care. I feel All of You. It WILL heal.
i ACCIDENTALLY PUNCTURED MY EARDRUM i'M SURE LAST NIGHT WITH A Q-TIP. I didnt experience any pain though. I can hear fine still with it and have not experienced any equilibrium balancing problems either. I didnt even know it was bleeding for over 4 hours. It is trying to clot up now 18 hrs later. Did you plug your ear hole for the month of healing or did you leave it open?
@@cybrpypr i left it open. the only things you should avoid is getting any water into the ear as it can lead to more infections and also dont use earphones with the injured ear. i left it open. only when i had school i had to use cotton because there was some fluid discharge all the time that becomes crusty after a while if not wiped.
I had mine ruptured a week ago and lost my hearing about 20%. Since then, it has recovered significantly. However, bear in mind a few things, don’t, at all cost make your ear wet as that will promote infection. If possible visit an ENT right away and get prescribed antibiotics. Don’t get a cold as that might delay the process. Eat healthy and take Multi vitamin tabs with high folic acid as that promotes cell growth. Good luck to everyone recovering from ear drum rupture. If any questions do write here and I will offer all the help I can
How big was your rupture bro.. is it small like a pinhole or a medium one. I have a medium sized hole for two weeks still the muffled hearing is same as before after the doctors appointment. He did even given me antibiotics and analgesics for pain relief and boost the healing process. How was your hearing now.
@@kishorearavind6557 it was close to 10-15%. Bigger holes might take longer. Just take your folic acid supplements and make sure you keep your ears dry. Did you put something in your ears?
@@shreyash2005 glad that your was small and do i need to scared about earwax i have excessive earwax problem from childhood to does it slows the healing process. 😭 and sure ill be seening doctor in few days 2nd appointment.
Does an ear rupture happen also going to deep with a q-tip.. cause I was cleaning my ear and went to deep an atm my mom isn’t home an it hurts really bad
@@janessa4713 i assume you're pretty young so the chances of full healing are 99% don't worry give it time but make sure you don't get your ear wet as that will promote infection which is bad for healing
@@mr.commonsense6645 I've had an ant in my ear before... TWICE! how? the time I remember was when I was eight crawling under my parent's bed to retrieve something that fell and bounced under, and the bed was low enough that I had to put my head sideways with my ear dragging on the ground and breath out then scoot forwards a few inches at a time, and somewhere under there was an ant crawling around on the carpet that made its way into my ear, it was very uncomfortable and loud whenever it touched my eardrum and my eyes watered a little from the pain, my mother used a rubber squeeze bulb to squirt water into my ear to flush it out, so painful as she squeezed very fast, so fast indeed that the little ant was dead and somewhat squished, I was scared afterward that mommy had damaged my eardrum but thankfully it is fine now seven years later. but wow, very thankful my little ant buddy didn't try to chew through my eardrum like carter's dad's beetle. P.S. if you have kids listen to how they feel if there are loud noises around, I was in a small community center with my parents, and there was a live band playing, and they had loudspeakers set up too, so loud and painful but I couldn't get my parents attention as it was very loud, when I finally did they couldn't hear me and I was too dazed and embarrassed to yell so they would be able to hear me as there were many people around, when I motioned in such a way they understood what I meant daddy told me I could go stand by the door as he and mommy still had lots to look for and so couldn't come with, I didn't have the independence or courage to go by myself at that point, we ended up leaving soon after though as I was shaking badly and hysterical though I hid it well enough that most of the people around hopefully didn't notice, when we got to the car i was sobbing and holding my head and shaking violently, i lost at the very least about twenty percent of my hearing in the one ear i kept turned towards the platform that day. and I never got it back, I also have a ringing in my ear to this day.
i feel you i was like 7 and my mom put hydrogen peroxide down my ear and it made it like ten times worse. Now my ear canal is partially collapsed. That could be from ear tubes though.
Thanks. Just want to add if you have tubes in your ears DO NOT use ear wax removal drops. I made that mistake have permanent nerve damage in my left ear and a hole in my ear drum. Also, the pain I experienced after the drop went in was off the chart. These ear drops bottles should have huge warnings signs on them.
How do i knoe i have tubes? Or ruptured eardrums. I dont feel any pain and i dont get any drainage from my ear. Just muffled sounds sometimes and really lous tinnitus.
@@reddieweeb If you've never had surgery to put in tubes, you don't have them. If you don't have pain, you probably don't have a perforated or ruptured eardrum. You may have a wax impaction. Go get your ears professionally cleaned.
I have had a ruptured eardrum for years. It was caused by allergies. For some reason, my ears would not drain and the fluid and pressure built up so much that it ruptured and bled. Because I am on medical, they have never bothered giving me surgery. I suffer to this day from it and can feel and hear air thru my ear when I blow my nose.
I've had the same problem, did you ever have like a rice bubble sound that other people can hear if sat next to you? My ear did that, my partner could hear it loud exactly like rice bubbles coming from my ear... It also bled , does it really mean it may be ruptured?
Here searching for answers/solutions/ similar experiences. I wear a hearing aide in my right ear due to an ear infection I had in high school (class of 1984). Today, I'm five days into a cold with congestion and a sore throat. I blew my nose real hard and heard a pop in my right ear. Then it began to ache. I took my hearing aide out. Shortly after, I couldn't hear in either ear! I burped and felt pain in my right ear. I knew that meant ear infection or something. Some things you never forget. Went to the ER, I "popped" a hole in my right ear drum! The pressure closed both ears! WTH?! I was given an anti-biotic. I was told to continue taking all the other over the counter and prescribed meds I got earlier this morning via tele-health. Now my right ear is leaking fluid. Doesn't hurt though. I will thank God for that part. Doc said my left ear should return to normal in a few days. My right ear will not return to the level it was before, which was very low. Hope my Doc can turn up this hearing aid! In the mean time, I have to text my family standing right in front of me. I know sign language but they do not. 🙄🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Very informative. I know more now and thank you. Just what I needed to calm me down from a severe hearing drop of a gunshot in a closed space with no ear protection. Time to see the doctor.
Here because I’ve got a “perforated” eardrum, my eardrum has pushed the grommet out but hasn’t healed the hole left behind by the grommet, I’m not sure why because every other time the grommet gets pushed out the eardrum usually heals with no problem, but I’m going to my regular ENT in 4 days to see what she says I’ve had ear troubles for 2 ish years, grommets for 2 years, multiple ear infections this year alone, so I’m used to ear issues-but this is something new. It doesn’t hurt though which I’m so grateful for, it just feels/sounds muffled and the tinnitus is worse on that side
@@jamiemcconnell8864 Yes, thank you for asking but the Q-tip actually didn't rip my eardrum i thought it was because After i cleaned my ear and went to bed it began to hurt so damn bad i thought i ripped it and we got to see a doctor after 2 days of me hiding it even tho i was still bleeding (I told my parents about it) and the cause was ear infection because of my pets then my doctor decided to give meds and it healed after a few days if your suffering of your eardrums being ripped I hope it will heal soon i feel the pain. I hope it will heal really really soon and get better and also have good day my friend 😁❤️
@@hoesmad_17 u too brudda, im not 100 percent sure I've ruptured my ear drum but I'm pretty sure ive done something to it, it ain't bleeding but I feel pain since I used that ear thingy and then pain went down to my jaw too
That for very informative in less time, thank you so much. Can you make a video on how the ruptured ear drum heal on its own? And what should one do to heal it on its own?
For years I've experienced pains in my ear. From water getting in to digging too deep with a q tip. A d of course, ive experience having a perferated ear drum. I will say this much. I dealt with this during my first pregnancy and IT WAS WAY MORE PAINFUL THEN GIVING BUR5H TO ENTIRE BABY. The pain was so bad I was considering just cutting my ear off to alleviate the pain. And yes I'm serious. The pain is absolutely INSANE! thank you so much for making this video explaining this to me because the doctor couldn't. He just kept asking me if I'm crying over how I would deal with the pain from delivery? Ear pain causes your entire head to hurt. No pain like ear pain.
Allthough I don't plan on having a bebe anytime soon being a dude and all if childbirth is less painfull than a perforated eardrum you woman have been all talk about childbirth for too long. It's really painful don't get me wrong and you can't sleep properly for a few days and have to pop 10 painkillers a day but in my experience broken arms/legs bones in general are 10x worse. Recovering from a perforated eardrum now wondering how long it'll take to be able to hear normally again. Been about 2 weeks
@@DrCliffAuD I just Googled bc I was curious. Have you Googled to read more? Looks like a study was conducted and the results were good. Is there any way to find a US doctor who performs this procedure?
Had a ruptured eardrum for 2-3 years now, yesterday I got water in it, 1: I’ve never been in more pain in my life. It was worse than when the eardrum ruptured in the first place, 2: I can’t hear out of that side at all anymore.
Ended up not being a ruptured eardrum, so bath time is not a life or death situation anymore😁, but I do hope you get better Kenzie, if that is possible at all
I rutured my ear drum last Friday and this Tuesday it started feeling better. Randomly today it started hurting bad again and having a lot of drainage. Its making me nervous but the urgent care doctor said wait 2 weeks to see if it heals on its own.
Hi..how you doing now?Did it heal?I'm on the same boat now...got an infection, then ruptured eardrum....doctor prescribed antibiotics...it did get better...then all of a sudden it is hurting bad again ...
Captain Kennedy it was a joke that only one person didn’t get, you 😂😂😂😂😂😂 🤦🏾♂️. I’m sure I wasn’t the only one who landed here directly after the fight. Hence, the joke was that I was only here to see what happens when an eardrum is ruptured, and that curiosity was ignited by the fight. Not only you missed the point of the joke, but you show up a month later with information that was not known by anyone at the time of my post. But because you want to sound smart like most RUclips experts, you show up late after everyone knows it was a cut by now believing you’re bringing some “woke” knowledge lmao. Again, when I made that comment it was just to acknowledge what brought me to this random video. I at the time made no determination of why his ear was bleeding and still had no connection after watching this video. If you watched the fight it was all the former champs calling it a busted eardrum. No one knew it was a cut. The boxing world found out at the same time when wilder camp revealed what the dr said. Sorry but no one is going to think you’re bringing some type of new revelation to the table😐. We all know it was a cut now
Plese please help me!😭 im in pain i dont know what just happen i was just trying uncloged air from my ear then later it started to feel pain through my throat and neck its really hurts so bad it givving me headache and i cant stop the pain 😭💔
I am going through this currently. It happened on Friday and when I say I’ve never felt a pain like this in my life I mean it. It’s Sunday night and the pain is still unbearable even with the meds. I can’t hear outside of the left ear but these comments have me hopeful. I will be contacting an ENT first thing in the morning. Wish me luck 😢.
My eardrum got perforated on 12th March. There was no blood or pus discharge. Nor there was any pain. By 19th April it was fully healed. All i did was be on medication of anti-biotic for upto a week, to prevent any infection. Use cotton and a plastic cover sealed with a rubber band while taking a bath. And leaving it dry all the time. Please don't smoke or drink during this time. Be on proper diet. Time heals everything 😊
Hey can you help me out? I accidentally hit my ears so maybe it created a pressure inside my ears and i feel ringing sound (beeping) coming out from one of my ears. No blood nor pus came out . So maybe my eardrum is ruptured or damaged . I went to doctor and taking some medicines now. Is my case as same as yours? Can it be healed ?
How is your hearing now bro.. i have a small perforation on my right ear.. its been two weeks so far i did go to doctor and he prescribed me antibiotics and analgesics for the pain and promote healing process. How long did it took to heal the rupture and your eardrum bro.? Did it took long? And how was your hearing now.
@@jalliboy maybe you're right, i was just nervous bcs i'm deaf in my left ear i just don't want to lose my hearing in my right ear too. Btw, it's Kyungsoo's album, it'll be released this year.
Dear Doctor, I recently experienced a cold and fever. After three days, I developed severe pain in my ear, which eventually burst, releasing fluid. The doctor cleaned my ear and prescribed Cefuroxime antibiotics. However, I am still experiencing continuous reddish water discharge and a constant Jhi Jhi sound. Could you please advise me on how to solve this issue? Thank you.
Just ruptured my right eardrum for the 3rd time in my life. Happened yesterday in the ER waiting area in Gilbert, AZ. It was some if not the most pain I’ve ever felt in my entire life. Even on Oxycodone, I was experiencing unbearable pain. Definitely need to get an ENT and explore tubes. Having bad hearing loss from this and a lot of blood and fluid leakage. 😞
I was left as a kid without treatment for ear infection and to cry myself to sleep and now have to wear hearing aids. My right ear is the one I hear best from but since January I have ruptured my right ear 3 times and had 3 courses of antibiotics. Miserable.
Back in about 2015 I had an ear infection and was still forced to go to a funeral that was 4 hours away and up in the mountains. Couldn't hear out of my right ear the entire time and when we made it back home, I had a lot of painful twitching. Had an argument with my dad because I was obviously not happy and was in a decent amount of pain. In the middle of me shouting, it felt like I got stabbed in the side of my head by a knife. Parents never took me to the doctor and said I was being dramatic. Went in a couple weeks later for my yearly check up and told my doc to check my ear because I was pretty sure I had ruptured it the weeks before. He confirmed it. I had to go to school while being pretty much deaf in my right ear. Luckily, my ear is fine and as far as I can tell there is no longterm damage to my hearing but time will tell.
My doctor accidently perforated my ear trying to remove earwax. He recommends to continue using eardrop while i wait for an ent specialist. I have lost about 50% of my hearing and continue to suffer strong tinnitis. I hope its not permanent. Very frusterating when one ear is dying and the other is sensitized and getting hard to comprehend conversation.
@@DrCliffAuD I had gone to a nurse first. She was gentle and used hot water. But could not remove all wax. Due to continued pain i went to see the doctor. Unfortunately he was in a hurry and newly qualified young man. He used cold water and too much pressure. I felt it right away and sure enough a piece of my drum was in the collection vessel. He was baffled at first since it was unusual and not wax. When he examined my eardrum he realized that the ear had became perforated. I dont blame him but the problem is an infection has taken place probably in the inner ear. I can't get to an ENT specialist there is a waiting period of about six months in canada. Been to the doctor several times and used cipro based antibiotic drops. Eventually last week i was prescribed oral penicillin. That helped somewhat but now my hearing is severely impacted. I just hope the hearing loss is temporary and not permanent. Thank you for the reply.
Great vid! I'm from England and I have had a perforated ear drum in the past and had to get surgery to repair it. I am deaf in my left ear and it was my right side ear that got perforated but luckily now its fixed and all is well but now my left ear has a perforated eardrum but the doctor has recommended that we just leave it as is because the ear is completely dead so there is no point in fixing it, is this a good take or should I ask for surgery anyway to fix it?
I drove down elevation to see an air show and I'm not sure if it was the pressure of the elevation change or the loud sound of the fighter jets or maybe the combination of both that ruptured my eardrum but my doctor did say it looked like someone had just poked a hole in it. I've since recovered and can here totally fine now, but at the time I was afraid it wouldn't heal properly because I have a bad history of ear infections and eardrum ruptures
@@chibwekaunda296 I was given stuff for itchiness and vertigo, but other than those, antibiotics were prescribed to help the infection die down. Nothing to heal the eardrum tho, my doctor said to just give it a month since the hole wasn't too big.
My ear drum ruptured owing to a ear infection not being treated there was a lot of brown fluid running out of it but it wasn't until months later that I realised what had happened when I woke up one morning opened my eyes and the bedroom was spinning I have never experienced anything like it the nausea and dizziness was one of the worst things I have experienced I was referred to the ear nose and throat clinic but I am still on a waiting list to see someone a year later
Been experiencing a lot of pain in my left ear resulting to my outer ear being swollen, hearing sounding muffled in said ear, and that side of my jaw hurting. Hoping its just a small ear infection but here I am paranoid because I cannot start my enlistment process for the Airforce with my hearing not normal. Crossing my fingers its nothing like this lol. Great Content overall!
Ruptured eardrums gives me so much pain it makes me mad and sometimes start to tear up. I endured the pain for 1 day and couldn't go the second. All jokes aside please don't wait, see a doctor right away
Hi doc, recently I was on an American Airlines flight going back home to Florida and I experienced a serious popping sensation in my ears when the plane dropped significantly from high altitude to land at MIA. On the rapid decent my ears popped and I had to call the flight attendant because of bleeding in my ears and nose. I currently suffer with menieres disease in my right ear and since then I have.been having intense ear pain and discomfort. What can I do and what do you recommend. I used to be a swimmer but had to give it up because of vertigo and sinus, and migraine headaches. What do you recommend. Thanks for your help.
my ear raptured more than 20 years I had 4 times operations and all failed. I gave up with the surgery and looking forward bfgf treatment . or other alternative treatments rather than surgery .
Very important to make note of, that no one talks about, and at 50, had never heard of until it happened to me, is you can perforate your eardrum by blowing your nose! I had Cvd, which turned into a sinus infection w badly blocked sinuses, so had to exert extra pressure to clear my sinus airway. POW! It felt like someone stabbed me in the ear, and that a water balloon had exploded in my ear. Not literally with water, but it’s action simulated it. Have lost half my hearing in this ear, and am now waiting for my Dr appointment. My question is, how do you know if you need surgery? How long do you wait until it’s not ‘getting better’ and can hearing loss be permanent? Thanks for all you do!
I accidentally stuck something equal to a pen through my ear and it went through and through. I knew it instantly I freaked out... it leaked for a week now its day 7 and I have trouble hearing and a little ringing people say the hole is healing up is this true? What should I do i cant go to a doctor
Hello Dr. My left side eardrum was raptured,I did the operation for that Dr. Has changed eardrum with my Thai's tissue, after this operation i couldn't able to hear from the day 1 of operation.. I can just here one sound in my ear... I'm so worried.. please tell me.. does this issue will resolve? When i can able to hear properly???
I feel like I may have ruptured my eardrum however I cannot see the doctor due to the COVID-19 epidemic. Approximately five days ago I had some really severe inner ear pain which has now minimized I do wake up in the morning with dry blood coming out of my ear. I notoriously get a severe sinus infection this time of year, but that doesn’t seem to be too bad. I’m self-medicating with Levaquin and Ofoxacin
aya Ich Mine went away after about two weeks... It came to the point that i couldnt even hear my fingers snapping next to my ear but eventually it just went away. after a lil more than 2 weeks
Jay Mares thank you so much. Because I don’t know what to do my ear is killing me I’m completely deaf in that ear and right now with everything that’s happening I can’t even see a doctor. At first I put olive oil in my ear thinking it would help but I feel I made it worst because I feel like the oil is just stuck inside my ear and I can’t get it out.
aya Ich have you seen any blood or puss come out? if you havent then most likely your ear drun is fine. What I reccomend is got to walgreens and get a ear wax removal kit. Its a tube you stick inside your ear with a special liquid and it kinda just melts the wax inside your ear. It helps alot. But trust me this is one of the most painful experiences I had in my life.. It hurt really bad for me 10/10 pain and I also was hearing that little noise kinda sounded like when in movies they throw a flash bang and the guy gets stunned.. and you hear that little beaping sound.. I heared that ALL DAY i honestly thought i busted my ear but I really think your fine just relax and play the waiting game. Best of Luck
I burst my ear drum 2 years ago with a cutip(idk how to spell) I still don't have 100% ofmy hearing at that ear I'm a minor so it did heal it did not hurt at all I just panicked idk what to do to it I do use headphones a lot I can't help it😅
Question, I had an right ear irrigation flush for wax removal but the cutaneous outer layer membrane came right off along with the wax. It was exactly small and round with a see through layer. Does it ever heal? I ended up with tinnitus a few days later.. Hearing is fine..
I’m experiencing that right now. Pretty sure it’s from a ruptured eardrum. Since your comment is from five months ago I’m assuming your ear has since healed? What was the process like for you?
@CW GOD I wish it was as simple as a blown eardrum but they think it’s more internal and nothing can be done. I’ve seen 3 specialists and an audiologist with no answers
I also have ruptured eardrums for years. Even a super tiny bit of water touch it causes so much pain and I my hearing becomes more muffled for weeks. I got to the doctor several times but its still ruptured up to this day.
I did this once with the loop of a needle. It felt weird after words. Air was now freely passing through the hole in my eardrum. Good thing I didn't go deaf. Be careful when cleaning your ear when it's not a q-tip
I inserted a toothpick, it felt weird but didn't hurt much only a little after 3 hours and I am hearing a slight tinning sound whenever I cough, do u think I ruptured my eardrum?
Interesting. I actually had no pain or hearing loss. But I am having constant bleeding. The ER just said there was some rupturing at the bottom but to wait it out and take antibiotics. Here’s to hoping it stops bleeding.
Hey can someone plz tell me precaution i have a ruputered ear drum in right olz soeone give me precaution . Should i keed plug cotoon to my ear whole day ? Or just only when i take bath plz tell me .
yo what do i do if i feel something moving in my ears its like the bone in my ears is moving cause ive been overdoing the thig where you pinch your nose and hold your breath and then you pump air into your ear i did it too kuch now i felt a bad pain in my ear and i can feel my ear bone mving around its like a rattle snake idk what to do
I ruptured my right ear just yesterday using a Q-Tip. I lost my hearing in my ear maybe about like 30%. The worst part? Yesterday morning, when I was showering, I put warm water in my ears thinking that would clear my ears out. I didn’t think much of the pain at that time. Now it hurts so freaking bad. For some reason, it even hurts when I yawn or sneeze. It legit feels like I’m being stabbed inside my ear.
Any reccomendations for care? I have otitis media with perforation caused by purulent buildup spread from tonsillitis. I live in a foreign country where it's not as easy to get answers. I'm on antibiotics and drops, but I'm worried about the aftercare as I work in an elementary school surrounded by germs and loud noises. Any basic reccomendations for how to take care of myself after?
Hi Doctor Cliff, I’ve got a hearing problem since more than a week, it’s because listening to music on the headset in one ear like three hours then it occurred. Now I’m in lockdown since two weeks I can’t be able to see a doctor. Before that I cleaned my ears with cotton bud then I listened to music on the one ear . But no pain cases. It’s like my ear closed with a door. Hope you will see my comment here, thanks you in advance.
I'm thirteen and this morning I sneezed and both my ears clogged up and I thought it would go away with time and I think I've ruptured both my eardrums and I live in a very noisy house so what do I do?
Hi Doctor I'm from Singapore Went snorkeling past eight months ago after that I felt loss of hearing on my right ear. I do have perforation on my both ears before. That was many years ago. Not sure they are healed, please help.. Thank you.
I was a patient of the same ear perforation. Try consulting your doctor, go to the ENT and get your eardrums scanned, they will monitor the insides of your ear using a mini camera and it will show on a monitor screen for the doctor to see clearly. Thats how you find out if they are healed. Dont be afraid.
So, used a q-tip like the majority of others here. Did perhaps put it too far in and then I couldn’t hear much, my hearing became quite muffled. Day or two later, no improvement, so used ear drops which if anything made it worse. Now I’m in constant pain and can occasionally hear a pulse in my ear - a week later? Never using q-tips again tbf.
doc ,when you are talking about 6:37 " potentially dislodging the three middle ear bones ....what do you mean ? do you mean that they get separated ? is it possible that we hit our ear drum with foreign object and not rupturing but dislodging the three bones ???? i accidentally touched my ear drum with a foreign object and i have developed tinnitus .....is it possible that little touch of ear drum caused tinnitus
I can hear properly most of the time but sometimes when I yell, my left ear hears like a broken speaker. I also have a lot of water fluid specially in the morning. is that also considered ruptured ear
Question? If your ear drum is “flat” can that cause lightheadness, and annoying type of pain/pressure on that side on your face that the ear is having problems like the cheek and temple area?
Hi sir....M Aparna from India ( 3rd year MBBS student) ... So actually I need some suggestions from u regarding using earphones which r widely being used by Indian population.......they proves weakening of hearing ability ....i too have the same issue...so I have decided to minimise the use......r they damaging our eardrums (tympanic member )too ?.......what should we do to avoid these earphone damage to our ear?
Please don't use earphones! I've used them a lot (like for so many hours continuously on a daily basis) today I've got to know that I've a hole in my ear drum!
Don't use any kind of earphones for too long and on high volume. If you do wanna use then make sure the volume is not more than 40% and not for very long
I had a gun go off at a gun range right when I was adjusting my head gear, and now I have lost most of my hearing in that ear. I went to an audiologist, and she looked into my ears, the ear drum is not ruptured. What is causing my hearing loss, can it be fixed?
I ruptured my ear drum when I was a little kid and it took like 10 years to heal, and I just bursted it again, possibly even worse then before. So far I can still hear and stuff normally I just hope it heals soon, cuz I hate being paranoid about water getting in my ears
Kookloop I had a bunch of water shoot into my ear at a super a speed when it happened so the initial blow didn’t hurt, but it started to hurt a couple hours afterwards and the pain kept growing worse and worse until I just went to sleep. When I woke up the next day I had discomfort with all the water in my ear, but there wasn’t really much pain. So for me, breaking the ear drum didn’t hurt at first, but afterwards is when the pain came. I was inner tubing and I fell off but was still hanging on for a couple seconds and my head was getting drug through the water super fast and water was just blasting into my ear for like a second or 2 straight. Some people I know say it hurt for when they didn’t it like if they swam to deep and the had it pop, but for me it didn’t hurt at first. I had to go get it checked to tell for sure
Gidster. It took ten years to heal? How did you burst it gain, ?? I don't know how you hurt your ear, but my advice to is to wear a hat that covers ears. That is what am doing anyway.
@@ethanlee-c3d it took a long time because when I was younger I got ear infections and stuff a lot and I just had bad ears for whatever reason, and I re-ruptured it in a water sports accident. Now 6 months later I’m still feeling fine, I haven’t lost any hearing, I haven’t had any earaches or anything, and stuff is going ok so maybe it actually healed again now that I’m older.
Okay, so I do a lot of mixing, and the other week I think I listened way too loud -- experiment gone wrong. I could sense my right ear felt uncomfortable and I immediately turned it down. Since then I had been mixing a lot and noticed my right ear would feel uncomfortable after a long amount of mixing. after about a week of that, I decided I should take a break from the noise to my ear. I could feel the discomfort dwindle, but I have so much work I need to do I can't just not mix... If I caused some minor damage to my ear, is it not good to keep listening even at lower levels? My ear isn't in throbbing pain, but I feel the discomfort especially in the upper mid frequencies. I have been trying to decipher if I have ruptured my ear drum w/o having to take a trip to the doctor.
I have a question: I have had myringoplasty in january 2019. The incision was made behind the ear to repair the eardrum. Since then I have hearing loss. is it normal?
Currently I've both my ears 👂 having liquid coming out of them, with pain now reduced in the left ear, but more pain in the right ear. I've been using earbuds to clear inside for long, and now each time I get to bed I wake up to brown liquid spots all over the pillow, and some clot of that liquid in and out of the ears is seen... I've tried different antibiotics but I've not got any positive change... Could this mean am in trouble???
Went to the doctors today and they did a general check up. My left eardrum is completely broken apparently! I’m not in pain what so ever and hearing is fine, can anyone explain why I’m not in pain or anything but I don’t have an ear drum at the moment I dont know
@@DrCliffAuD what if I use the blowing method where I pinch my nose won’t I be able to know of there is a hole because I would feel air go through the potentially ruptured eardrum? Please correct me if I’m wrong.
Yep, if you can blow hard enough to feel the air flow. I recommend you don't blow that hard incase there is no perforation. You might accidentally create one.
Dude i had extreme fever a few days ago and now my right ear pains (feels like something sharp poking) when i yawn. I came to see this because im really scared and i wanted to become a music producer
This was helpful, but now I'm concerned because I had some wax blockage going on for about a week and a half in both my ears. Flushed them out with ear drops. I think I got my left ear is good but my right is still weird. I can hear fine. Sound comes in pretty well, however, it still feels like there's something still in there. I am now concerned I may have ruptured my eardrum while using the syringe bulb they give you in a wax removal kit. I'm not in pain, it just feels like there's still some blockage and some pressure built up.
Same I had done a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and water (half and half) to flush my clogged ear and ever since than (2 days ago) I’ve been feeling mad weird. Like I hear sound a little differently and hurts to hear loud noises
I used to get a lot of ear infections as a kid. Once I had so much build up that I was in a ton of pain. Eventually my ear drum ruptured, I remember screaming in pain, and then immediately feeling drainage and relief. Used medicated ear drops for a while. My hearing was deadened and sounded like I was underwater or muffled for quite a while. Never got tubes. I was told by a doctor that I have a scar on my ear drum, not sure if that’s a thing. Wondering if the ear drum is now weaker in the area where it ruptured, or if it’s safe to clean out my ears with drop/warm water?
I did this this when I was younger, with a Q-tip, all the way in. It was THE worst pain I have ever felt. Thankfully it healed.
Glad you are okay and didn’t lose your hearing
How long does it take for your ear to heal?
@@nicholepineda9199 maybe a month.
Holy
I’ve had tubes in both my ears when I was a little girl and one fell out on its own the other I had to go in and they took it out. Years later in 2019 I went to ear nose and throat doctor and found out I have hearing loss in both my ears, but in my left ear is a hole in the eardrum from having the tubes it never closed. I was supposed to go back to get it fixed. Here it is 2024 and I could not get the treatment I needed to fix the hole in the eardrum because I lost my health insurance and live paycheck to paycheck. I started Working at a school and I lost my job probably because of my hearing and feeling uncomfortable because sometimes I just couldn’t hear what anyone would say to me, especially in the cafeteria awards . Right now I am in the process of trying to figure out how I can get help because my hearing has gotten a lot worse. This helped a lot and I hope that I can get my ear fixed and get my hearing back. My English has gone downhill as well having hearing loss is not fun. Definitely recommend taking care of your hearing. It takes a toll on you.
To everyone who watched this recently or IS watching because they have a ruptured eardrum...
I was listening to this several weeks back because I had ruptured my eardrum as well and it was bleeding for a day then for 2 weeks all the fluid was coming out every now and then. Also my hearing was muffled and felt like a blockage for almost 3 weeks. But don't worry y'all. They suggested me an eardrop to prevent infection. It healed now almost. My hearing is back to normal now with some blockage that will be cleaned in a few days. Don't you worry eardrums heal BUT remember not to get your damaged ear wet even for a bit. That could cause infections that an lead to permanent hearing loss. Take care. I feel All of You. It WILL heal.
Thank you. Just waiting to go see a doctor. I think my 2 year old ruptured her ear drums with a lolly stick
i ACCIDENTALLY PUNCTURED MY EARDRUM i'M SURE LAST NIGHT WITH A Q-TIP. I didnt experience any pain though. I can hear fine still with it and have not experienced any equilibrium balancing problems either. I didnt even know it was bleeding for over 4 hours. It is trying to clot up now 18 hrs later. Did you plug your ear hole for the month of healing or did you leave it open?
@@mooshie2272 i hope she's doing fine😊😊. it will heal faster for children. there's nothing to worry about 🤗
@@cybrpypr i left it open. the only things you should avoid is getting any water into the ear as it can lead to more infections and also dont use earphones with the injured ear. i left it open. only when i had school i had to use cotton because there was some fluid discharge all the time that becomes crusty after a while if not wiped.
@freee Mizzy i don't think you have nothing to worry about but don't do that again thou could be scratching your eardrums
I had mine ruptured a week ago and lost my hearing about 20%. Since then, it has recovered significantly. However, bear in mind a few things, don’t, at all cost make your ear wet as that will promote infection. If possible visit an ENT right away and get prescribed antibiotics. Don’t get a cold as that might delay the process. Eat healthy and take Multi vitamin tabs with high folic acid as that promotes cell growth. Good luck to everyone recovering from ear drum rupture. If any questions do write here and I will offer all the help I can
How big was your rupture bro.. is it small like a pinhole or a medium one. I have a medium sized hole for two weeks still the muffled hearing is same as before after the doctors appointment. He did even given me antibiotics and analgesics for pain relief and boost the healing process. How was your hearing now.
@@kishorearavind6557 it was close to 10-15%. Bigger holes might take longer. Just take your folic acid supplements and make sure you keep your ears dry. Did you put something in your ears?
@@shreyash2005 glad that your was small and do i need to scared about earwax i have excessive earwax problem from childhood to does it slows the healing process. 😭 and sure ill be seening doctor in few days 2nd appointment.
Does an ear rupture happen also going to deep with a q-tip.. cause I was cleaning my ear and went to deep an atm my mom isn’t home an it hurts really bad
@@janessa4713 i assume you're pretty young so the chances of full healing are 99% don't worry give it time but make sure you don't get your ear wet as that will promote infection which is bad for healing
My dad had a beetle crawl in his ear somehow and it was chomping on those layers you were talking about. Now I understand how much pain he was in.
Whaat tf
@@mr.commonsense6645 I've had an ant in my ear before... TWICE! how? the time I remember was when I was eight crawling under my parent's bed to retrieve something that fell and bounced under, and the bed was low enough that I had to put my head sideways with my ear dragging on the ground and breath out then scoot forwards a few inches at a time, and somewhere under there was an ant crawling around on the carpet that made its way into my ear, it was very uncomfortable and loud whenever it touched my eardrum and my eyes watered a little from the pain, my mother used a rubber squeeze bulb to squirt water into my ear to flush it out, so painful as she squeezed very fast, so fast indeed that the little ant was dead and somewhat squished, I was scared afterward that mommy had damaged my eardrum but thankfully it is fine now seven years later. but wow, very thankful my little ant buddy didn't try to chew through my eardrum like carter's dad's beetle.
P.S. if you have kids listen to how they feel if there are loud noises around, I was in a small community center with my parents, and there was a live band playing, and they had loudspeakers set up too, so loud and painful but I couldn't get my parents attention as it was very loud, when I finally did they couldn't hear me and I was too dazed and embarrassed to yell so they would be able to hear me as there were many people around, when I motioned in such a way they understood what I meant daddy told me I could go stand by the door as he and mommy still had lots to look for and so couldn't come with, I didn't have the independence or courage to go by myself at that point, we ended up leaving soon after though as I was shaking badly and hysterical though I hid it well enough that most of the people around hopefully didn't notice, when we got to the car i was sobbing and holding my head and shaking violently, i lost at the very least about twenty percent of my hearing in the one ear i kept turned towards the platform that day. and I never got it back, I also have a ringing in my ear to this day.
Bruh

Sounds straight from Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark
Thanks so much Dr. Cliff! I’m getting my ears 👂 checked tomorrow since it hurt so much the past 5 days. I hope I don’t have a ruptured eardrum.
I was born with a ruptured ear drum and have Done several surgeries and now I'm so used to the pain I can become a superhero
😂
Are you being sarcastic or sincere?
Me too. I did surgeries for both of my eardrum, one of them failed and now I don't have the strength to undergo surgery again
Its 3 am and im crying my eyes out cus it hurt so bad😭 (turns out it was a infected ear canal )
@@leejaehee4216 u would know how loud im crying
Same but it’s 2:Am for me
i feel you i was like 7 and my mom put hydrogen peroxide down my ear and it made it like ten times worse. Now my ear canal is partially collapsed. That could be from ear tubes though.
@@seerskin-5034turns out my ear canal was jnfected but my ear was super clean
Sameee
Thanks. Just want to add if you have tubes in your ears DO NOT use ear wax removal drops. I made that mistake have permanent nerve damage in my left ear and a hole in my ear drum. Also, the pain I experienced after the drop went in was off the chart. These ear drops bottles should have huge warnings signs on them.
How do i knoe i have tubes? Or ruptured eardrums.
I dont feel any pain and i dont get any drainage from my ear. Just muffled sounds sometimes and really lous tinnitus.
@@reddieweeb If you've never had surgery to put in tubes, you don't have them. If you don't have pain, you probably don't have a perforated or ruptured eardrum. You may have a wax impaction. Go get your ears professionally cleaned.
i can ask you?
Thank you for the warning!!
I have been experiencing severe pain behind my right ear for one year now😪😪😪😪 can someone kindly help?
I have had a ruptured eardrum for years. It was caused by allergies. For some reason, my ears would not drain and the fluid and pressure built up so much that it ruptured and bled. Because I am on medical, they have never bothered giving me surgery. I suffer to this day from it and can feel and hear air thru my ear when I blow my nose.
Symptoms kya tha
really hoping for ur pain relief and betterment 🖤🤍
What did you do for it did u get rid of it
I've had the same problem, did you ever have like a rice bubble sound that other people can hear if sat next to you? My ear did that, my partner could hear it loud exactly like rice bubbles coming from my ear... It also bled , does it really mean it may be ruptured?
@@2011thekajdefinitely sounds like it
Here searching for answers/solutions/ similar experiences.
I wear a hearing aide in my right ear due to an ear infection I had in high school (class of 1984). Today, I'm five days into a cold with congestion and a sore throat. I blew my nose real hard and heard a pop in my right ear. Then it began to ache. I took my hearing aide out. Shortly after, I couldn't hear in either ear! I burped and felt pain in my right ear. I knew that meant ear infection or something. Some things you never forget. Went to the ER, I "popped" a hole in my right ear drum! The pressure closed both ears! WTH?! I was given an anti-biotic. I was told to continue taking all the other over the counter and prescribed meds I got earlier this morning via tele-health. Now my right ear is leaking fluid. Doesn't hurt though. I will thank God for that part. Doc said my left ear should return to normal in a few days. My right ear will not return to the level it was before, which was very low. Hope my Doc can turn up this hearing aid! In the mean time, I have to text my family standing right in front of me. I know sign language but they do not. 🙄🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Very informative. I know more now and thank you. Just what I needed to calm me down from a severe hearing drop of a gunshot in a closed space with no ear protection. Time to see the doctor.
Here because I’ve got a “perforated” eardrum, my eardrum has pushed the grommet out but hasn’t healed the hole left behind by the grommet, I’m not sure why because every other time the grommet gets pushed out the eardrum usually heals with no problem, but I’m going to my regular ENT in 4 days to see what she says
I’ve had ear troubles for 2 ish years, grommets for 2 years, multiple ear infections this year alone, so I’m used to ear issues-but this is something new. It doesn’t hurt though which I’m so grateful for, it just feels/sounds muffled and the tinnitus is worse on that side
Its so sad that q-tips feel so gooooöooood!!
Levi MULDER 😂😂😂😂
Thats the cause of my eardrum being ripped
@@hoesmad_17 same bro, ur ear good now?
@@jamiemcconnell8864 Yes, thank you for asking but the Q-tip actually didn't rip my eardrum i thought it was because After i cleaned my ear and went to bed it began to hurt so damn bad i thought i ripped it and we got to see a doctor after 2 days of me hiding it even tho i was still bleeding (I told my parents about it) and the cause was ear infection because of my pets then my doctor decided to give meds and it healed after a few days if your suffering of your eardrums being ripped I hope it will heal soon i feel the pain. I hope it will heal really really soon and get better and also have good day my friend 😁❤️
@@hoesmad_17 u too brudda, im not 100 percent sure I've ruptured my ear drum but I'm pretty sure ive done something to it, it ain't bleeding but I feel pain since I used that ear thingy and then pain went down to my jaw too
That for very informative in less time, thank you so much. Can you make a video on how the ruptured ear drum heal on its own? And what should one do to heal it on its own?
This is very helpful. My GP suspects I have a perforation of my ear drum and has referred me to an ENT. It is very painful.
For years I've experienced pains in my ear. From water getting in to digging too deep with a q tip. A d of course, ive experience having a perferated ear drum. I will say this much. I dealt with this during my first pregnancy and IT WAS WAY MORE PAINFUL THEN GIVING BUR5H TO ENTIRE BABY. The pain was so bad I was considering just cutting my ear off to alleviate the pain. And yes I'm serious. The pain is absolutely INSANE! thank you so much for making this video explaining this to me because the doctor couldn't. He just kept asking me if I'm crying over how I would deal with the pain from delivery? Ear pain causes your entire head to hurt. No pain like ear pain.
Me right now
Did the noise stop now hope u feeling better
Me right now, i can't sleep
Allthough I don't plan on having a bebe anytime soon being a dude and all if childbirth is less painfull than a perforated eardrum you woman have been all talk about childbirth for too long. It's really painful don't get me wrong and you can't sleep properly for a few days and have to pop 10 painkillers a day but in my experience broken arms/legs bones in general are 10x worse. Recovering from a perforated eardrum now wondering how long it'll take to be able to hear normally again. Been about 2 weeks
This so true i cant sleep it keeps hurting so bad and sometimes it hurts so bad that my entire head hurts💀
Have you heard of 'eardrum regeneration membrane repair' which is being used successfully in Japan and is much simpler surgery?
I remember seeing something about this in 2017 but never saw any clinical trial results. Do you have a link to a study I could check out?

Had a ruptured eardrum for 2-3 years now, yesterday I got water in it, 1: I’ve never been in more pain in my life. It was worse than when the eardrum ruptured in the first place, 2: I can’t hear out of that side at all anymore.

Thanks for explaining what happened to Wilder’s ear.
S Cooper it was just a cut😂😂😂😂 wtf
Captain Kennedy it was a joke that only one person didn’t get, you 😂😂😂😂😂😂 🤦🏾♂️. I’m sure I wasn’t the only one who landed here directly after the fight. Hence, the joke was that I was only here to see what happens when an eardrum is ruptured, and that curiosity was ignited by the fight.
Not only you missed the point of the joke, but you show up a month later with information that was not known by anyone at the time of my post. But because you want to sound smart like most RUclips experts, you show up late after everyone knows it was a cut by now believing you’re bringing some “woke” knowledge lmao.
Again, when I made that comment it was just to acknowledge what brought me to this random video. I at the time made no determination of why his ear was bleeding and still had no connection after watching this video.
If you watched the fight it was all the former champs calling it a busted eardrum. No one knew it was a cut. The boxing world found out at the same time when wilder camp revealed what the dr said.
Sorry but no one is going to think you’re bringing some type of new revelation to the table😐. We all know it was a cut now
S Cooper the only joke is wilder thinking he can beat fury in the rematch

I am going through this currently. It happened on Friday and when I say I’ve never felt a pain like this in my life I mean it. It’s Sunday night and the pain is still unbearable even with the meds. I can’t hear outside of the left ear but these comments have me hopeful. I will be contacting an ENT first thing in the morning. Wish me luck 😢.
Is it healed???

@@jasminethomas2019how about now?
My eardrum got perforated on 12th March. There was no blood or pus discharge. Nor there was any pain. By 19th April it was fully healed. All i did was be on medication of anti-biotic for upto a week, to prevent any infection. Use cotton and a plastic cover sealed with a rubber band while taking a bath. And leaving it dry all the time. Please don't smoke or drink during this time. Be on proper diet. Time heals everything 😊
Hey can you help me out?
I accidentally hit my ears so maybe it created a pressure inside my ears and i feel ringing sound (beeping) coming out from one of my ears. No blood nor pus came out .
So maybe my eardrum is ruptured or damaged . I went to doctor and taking some medicines now.
Is my case as same as yours?
Can it be healed ?

Dear Doctor,
I recently experienced a cold and fever. After three days, I developed severe pain in my ear, which eventually burst, releasing fluid.
The doctor cleaned my ear and prescribed Cefuroxime antibiotics. However, I am still experiencing continuous reddish water discharge and a constant Jhi Jhi sound.
Could you please advise me on how to solve this issue?
Thank you.
what happened to your ear?
Just ruptured my right eardrum for the 3rd time in my life. Happened yesterday in the ER waiting area in Gilbert, AZ.
It was some if not the most pain I’ve ever felt in my entire life. Even on Oxycodone, I was experiencing unbearable pain.
Definitely need to get an ENT and explore tubes. Having bad hearing loss from this and a lot of blood and fluid leakage. 😞
What ended up happening?
Pain is just a feeling idiot
I'll pray for you
Did your eardrum heal on its own?
My eardrum did heal. I saw an ENT and he basically turned me down for tubes and said there was nothing he could do.
This happened to me in both ears when I was little due to a really bad ear infection, the pain I went through was painful
Did you heal?
same to my right.
Did u heal ?
I was left as a kid without treatment for ear infection and to cry myself to sleep and now have to wear hearing aids. My right ear is the one I hear best from but since January I have ruptured my right ear 3 times and had 3 courses of antibiotics. Miserable.
Back in about 2015 I had an ear infection and was still forced to go to a funeral that was 4 hours away and up in the mountains. Couldn't hear out of my right ear the entire time and when we made it back home, I had a lot of painful twitching. Had an argument with my dad because I was obviously not happy and was in a decent amount of pain. In the middle of me shouting, it felt like I got stabbed in the side of my head by a knife. Parents never took me to the doctor and said I was being dramatic. Went in a couple weeks later for my yearly check up and told my doc to check my ear because I was pretty sure I had ruptured it the weeks before. He confirmed it. I had to go to school while being pretty much deaf in my right ear. Luckily, my ear is fine and as far as I can tell there is no longterm damage to my hearing but time will tell.
Your parents are scum.

My doctor accidently perforated my ear trying to remove earwax. He recommends to continue using eardrop while i wait for an ent specialist. I have lost about 50% of my hearing and continue to suffer strong tinnitis. I hope its not permanent. Very frusterating when one ear is dying and the other is sensitized and getting hard to comprehend conversation.
Ouch, sorry to hear that. Did you go to an earwax removal specialist or just a general practitioner?
@@DrCliffAuD I had gone to a nurse first. She was gentle and used hot water. But could not remove all wax. Due to continued pain i went to see the doctor. Unfortunately he was in a hurry and newly qualified young man. He used cold water and too much pressure. I felt it right away and sure enough a piece of my drum was in the collection vessel. He was baffled at first since it was unusual and not wax. When he examined my eardrum he realized that the ear had became perforated. I dont blame him but the problem is an infection has taken place probably in the inner ear. I can't get to an ENT specialist there is a waiting period of about six months in canada. Been to the doctor several times and used cipro based antibiotic drops. Eventually last week i was prescribed oral penicillin. That helped somewhat but now my hearing is severely impacted. I just hope the hearing loss is temporary and not permanent. Thank you for the reply.

Great vid! I'm from England and I have had a perforated ear drum in the past and had to get surgery to repair it. I am deaf in my left ear and it was my right side ear that got perforated but luckily now its fixed and all is well but now my left ear has a perforated eardrum but the doctor has recommended that we just leave it as is because the ear is completely dead so there is no point in fixing it, is this a good take or should I ask for surgery anyway to fix it?
Please I have same problems so what do you do ❤

Use antibiotic ear drops and pain relief pills
I drove down elevation to see an air show and I'm not sure if it was the pressure of the elevation change or the loud sound of the fighter jets or maybe the combination of both that ruptured my eardrum but my doctor did say it looked like someone had just poked a hole in it. I've since recovered and can here totally fine now, but at the time I was afraid it wouldn't heal properly because I have a bad history of ear infections and eardrum ruptures

Hi doc, recently I was on an American Airlines flight going back home to Florida and I experienced a serious popping sensation in my ears when the plane dropped significantly from high altitude to land at MIA. On the rapid decent my ears popped and I had to call the flight attendant because of bleeding in my ears and nose. I currently suffer with menieres disease in my right ear and since then I have.been having intense ear pain and discomfort. What can I do and what do you recommend. I used to be a swimmer but had to give it up because of vertigo and sinus, and migraine headaches. What do you recommend. Thanks for your help.
ruptured eardrum
burst eardrum
ear discharge
my ear raptured more than 20 years I had 4 times operations and all failed. I gave up with the surgery and looking forward bfgf treatment . or other alternative treatments rather than surgery .
Will the Tinnitus disappear after the eardrum fully recovered?
How is it now?
Very important to make note of, that no one talks about, and at 50, had never heard of until it happened to me, is you can perforate your eardrum by blowing your nose! I had Cvd, which turned into a sinus infection w badly blocked sinuses, so had to exert extra pressure to clear my sinus airway. POW! It felt like someone stabbed me in the ear, and that a water balloon had exploded in my ear. Not literally with water, but it’s action simulated it. Have lost half my hearing in this ear, and am now waiting for my Dr appointment. My question is, how do you know if you need surgery? How long do you wait until it’s not ‘getting better’ and can hearing loss be permanent?
Thanks for all you do!
I accidentally stuck something equal to a pen through my ear and it went through and through. I knew it instantly I freaked out... it leaked for a week now its day 7 and I have trouble hearing and a little ringing people say the hole is healing up is this true? What should I do i cant go to a doctor
Is your ear fine, now?
I have a popped ear drums and it has really wet gunk coming out every morning i clear it but it comes back do quick this video helped alot
Hello Dr. My left side eardrum was raptured,I did the operation for that Dr. Has changed eardrum with my Thai's tissue, after this operation i couldn't able to hear from the day 1 of operation.. I can just here one sound in my ear... I'm so worried.. please tell me.. does this issue will resolve? When i can able to hear properly???
I clean my both ears with earpick spoon and use cotton swab right after now my both ears killing me. What is the preffered drops for it?
I feel like I may have ruptured my eardrum however I cannot see the doctor due to the COVID-19 epidemic. Approximately five days ago I had some really severe inner ear pain which has now minimized I do wake up in the morning with dry blood coming out of my ear. I notoriously get a severe sinus infection this time of year, but that doesn’t seem to be too bad. I’m self-medicating with Levaquin and Ofoxacin
Jason Rapisarda Same with me bro 😩
Do you guys feel better now. I have the same problem
aya Ich Mine went away after about two weeks... It came to the point that i couldnt even hear my fingers snapping next to my ear but eventually it just went away. after a lil more than 2 weeks
Jay Mares thank you so much. Because I don’t know what to do my ear is killing me I’m completely deaf in that ear and right now with everything that’s happening I can’t even see a doctor. At first I put olive oil in my ear thinking it would help but I feel I made it worst because I feel like the oil is just stuck inside my ear and I can’t get it out.
aya Ich have you seen any blood or puss come out? if you havent then most likely your ear drun is fine. What I reccomend is got to walgreens and get a ear wax removal kit. Its a tube you stick inside your ear with a special liquid and it kinda just melts the wax inside your ear. It helps alot. But trust me this is one of the most painful experiences I had in my life.. It hurt really bad for me 10/10 pain and I also was hearing that little noise kinda sounded like when in movies they throw a flash bang and the guy gets stunned.. and you hear that little beaping sound.. I heared that ALL DAY i honestly thought i busted my ear but I really think your fine just relax and play the waiting game. Best of Luck
I burst my ear drum 2 years ago with a cutip(idk how to spell) I still don't have 100% ofmy hearing at that ear I'm a minor so it did heal it did not hurt at all I just panicked idk what to do to it I do use headphones a lot I can't help it😅
Question,
I had an right ear irrigation flush for wax removal but the cutaneous outer layer membrane came right off along with the wax. It was exactly small and round with a see through layer. Does it ever heal? I ended up with tinnitus a few days later.. Hearing is fine..
It bleed a bit right after the flush
You still have ear ringing? Once your ear drum is healed the tinnitus will gone.
@@angelofonseca8452 could you please update how is your eardrum now?🥺
@@bazinga440 is your hearing normal now?
I ruptured mine with a Q-TIP.. this sucks.. I hope it heals
Same. Had mine for 4 weeks now it's ago y
OUCH 😥😉😥😥😥
Do you know what causes distortion or blown speaker like hearing? You seem to know more than anyone else
I’m experiencing that right now. Pretty sure it’s from a ruptured eardrum. Since your comment is from five months ago I’m assuming your ear has since healed? What was the process like for you?
@@CharlesFerraro my personal doctor checked for it right away and said it looks fine. I also have tinnitus. Nothing has gotten better. Been 7 years
@CW GOD I wish it was as simple as a blown eardrum but they think it’s more internal and nothing can be done. I’ve seen 3 specialists and an audiologist with no answers
Does G forces have any issues with the Tampic membrane
Excellent and very informative! Keep up the good work!
I also have ruptured eardrums for years. Even a super tiny bit of water touch it causes so much pain and I my hearing becomes more muffled for weeks. I got to the doctor several times but its still ruptured up to this day.
How big size of Ear drum rupture spontaneously repairable and how long time does it will take to cover hole and what can we do during healing
thank you. you explained this better than my dr.
I did this once with the loop of a needle. It felt weird after words. Air was now freely passing through the hole in my eardrum. Good thing I didn't go deaf. Be careful when cleaning your ear when it's not a q-tip
Q-tips r safer because they have wool anything else dangerous
I inserted a toothpick, it felt weird but didn't hurt much only a little after 3 hours and I am hearing a slight tinning sound whenever I cough, do u think I ruptured my eardrum?
Interesting. I actually had no pain or hearing loss. But I am having constant bleeding. The ER just said there was some rupturing at the bottom but to wait it out and take antibiotics. Here’s to hoping it stops bleeding.
What happened?
How long would it take to regain hearing after ossiculoplasty
Watching this video make me throw away all of my Q-tips 😥
Hey can someone plz tell me precaution i have a ruputered ear drum in right olz soeone give me precaution . Should i keed plug cotoon to my ear whole day ? Or just only when i take bath plz tell me .
Exactly like you, please tell me if you found an answer to this question
thanks for explaining what happened to doyles ear.
yo what do i do if i feel something moving in my ears its like the bone in my ears is moving cause ive been overdoing the thig where you pinch your nose and hold your breath and then you pump air into your ear i did it too kuch now i felt a bad pain in my ear and i can feel my ear bone mving around its like a rattle snake idk what to do
Did you get it checked out? What was the outcome?
I ruptured my right ear just yesterday using a Q-Tip. I lost my hearing in my ear maybe about like 30%.
The worst part? Yesterday morning, when I was showering, I put warm water in my ears thinking that would clear my ears out. I didn’t think much of the pain at that time.
Now it hurts so freaking bad. For some reason, it even hurts when I yawn or sneeze. It legit feels like I’m being stabbed inside my ear.
Same thing here did it got any better?
@@younglawdvevo36
It did. It’s almost good as new now. It healed pretty fast
This exactly happened to me but in my right ear, i really hope it goes away. Never using qtips again.
@@sprout12730
Fr bro
It healed for me in 3 days. Hope it gets better for you soon
@@YUKIMI12345did u go to the dr or did it heal on its own?
It being two week my ear itching so bad n i can feelin my hearin comin back but am having ear ache
Any reccomendations for care? I have otitis media with perforation caused by purulent buildup spread from tonsillitis. I live in a foreign country where it's not as easy to get answers. I'm on antibiotics and drops, but I'm worried about the aftercare as I work in an elementary school surrounded by germs and loud noises. Any basic reccomendations for how to take care of myself after?
Sorry Em C, the medical treatment side is outside of my scope of practice.
I am in the same condition as you. Did your ear recover well? How are you now?
Hi Doctor Cliff, I’ve got a hearing problem since more than a week, it’s because listening to music on the headset in one ear like three hours then it occurred. Now I’m in lockdown since two weeks I can’t be able to see a doctor. Before that I cleaned my ears with cotton bud then I listened to music on the one ear . But no pain cases. It’s like my ear closed with a door. Hope you will see my comment here, thanks you in advance.
I have lost my sense of smell and now I'm about to lose my sense of hearing.😣
Omg same
Gosh😭 my fear rn
So sad
Same due to COVID but I have it back it’s distorted. Now my right ear is hurting so fucking bad
I'm thirteen and this morning I sneezed and both my ears clogged up and I thought it would go away with time and I think I've ruptured both my eardrums and I live in a very noisy house so what do I do?
Hi Doctor
I'm from Singapore
Went snorkeling past eight months ago after that I felt loss of hearing on my right ear. I do have perforation on my both ears before. That was many years ago. Not sure they are healed, please help.. Thank you.
I was a patient of the same ear perforation. Try consulting your doctor, go to the ENT and get your eardrums scanned, they will monitor the insides of your ear using a mini camera and it will show on a monitor screen for the doctor to see clearly. Thats how you find out if they are healed. Dont be afraid.
@@aeropureinhakase855 if its perforation, do I need to go for surgery
@@paulyin8934 no need, depends on how serious it is
@@paulyin8934 you just follow doc's prescriptions strictly, dont skip medications if offered cuz its never gonna heal up if you skip
How tell if you got one
Pain
Ringing
Etc
So, used a q-tip like the majority of others here. Did perhaps put it too far in and then I couldn’t hear much, my hearing became quite muffled. Day or two later, no improvement, so used ear drops which if anything made it worse. Now I’m in constant pain and can occasionally hear a pulse in my ear - a week later? Never using q-tips again tbf.
How are u feeling now still have that muffled noise hope U feel better
doc ,when you are talking about 6:37 " potentially dislodging the three middle ear bones ....what do you mean ? do you mean that they get separated ? is it possible that we hit our ear drum with foreign object and not rupturing but dislodging the three bones ???? i accidentally touched my ear drum with a foreign object and i have developed tinnitus .....is it possible that little touch of ear drum caused tinnitus
I can hear properly most of the time but sometimes when I yell, my left ear hears like a broken speaker. I also have a lot of water fluid specially in the morning.
is that also considered ruptured ear
I dont think so
@@ronnieves2398 Thank goodness. I hope you're right.
@@ralphjosephrjm326 how are you feeling now?
Can a person get piece of the cotton from q tip stuck behind the ear drum?
Bro pls tell me
I had a tympanic membrane a month ago and now I feel a little tinnitus. What do you think and what is the solution? Thank you
you should talk to a doctor that speaks your native language as the meaning is lost a little in translation
Question? If your ear drum is “flat” can that cause lightheadness, and annoying type of pain/pressure on that side on your face that the ear is having problems like the cheek and temple area?
Not that I'm aware of.
Hi sir....M Aparna from India ( 3rd year MBBS student) ... So actually I need some suggestions from u regarding using earphones which r widely being used by Indian population.......they proves weakening of hearing ability ....i too have the same issue...so I have decided to minimise the use......r they damaging our eardrums (tympanic member )too ?.......what should we do to avoid these earphone damage to our ear?
Please don't use earphones! I've used them a lot (like for so many hours continuously on a daily basis) today I've got to know that I've a hole in my ear drum!
Don't use any kind of earphones for too long and on high volume. If you do wanna use then make sure the volume is not more than 40% and not for very long
I had a gun go off at a gun range right when I was adjusting my head gear, and now I have lost most of my hearing in that ear. I went to an audiologist, and she looked into my ears, the ear drum is not ruptured. What is causing my hearing loss, can it be fixed?
How are you feeling now?
I ruptured my ear drum when I was a little kid and it took like 10 years to heal, and I just bursted it again, possibly even worse then before. So far I can still hear and stuff normally I just hope it heals soon, cuz I hate being paranoid about water getting in my ears
Kookloop I had a bunch of water shoot into my ear at a super a speed when it happened so the initial blow didn’t hurt, but it started to hurt a couple hours afterwards and the pain kept growing worse and worse until I just went to sleep. When I woke up the next day I had discomfort with all the water in my ear, but there wasn’t really much pain. So for me, breaking the ear drum didn’t hurt at first, but afterwards is when the pain came. I was inner tubing and I fell off but was still hanging on for a couple seconds and my head was getting drug through the water super fast and water was just blasting into my ear for like a second or 2 straight. Some people I know say it hurt for when they didn’t it like if they swam to deep and the had it pop, but for me it didn’t hurt at first. I had to go get it checked to tell for sure
Gidster. It took ten years to heal? How did you burst it gain, ?? I don't know how you hurt your ear, but my advice to is to wear a hat that covers ears. That is what am doing anyway.
@@ethanlee-c3d it took a long time because when I was younger I got ear infections and stuff a lot and I just had bad ears for whatever reason, and I re-ruptured it in a water sports accident. Now 6 months later I’m still feeling fine, I haven’t lost any hearing, I haven’t had any earaches or anything, and stuff is going ok so maybe it actually healed again now that I’m older.
are there any possibility of regenerative therapies?
Okay, so I do a lot of mixing, and the other week I think I listened way too loud -- experiment gone wrong. I could sense my right ear felt uncomfortable and I immediately turned it down. Since then I had been mixing a lot and noticed my right ear would feel uncomfortable after a long amount of mixing. after about a week of that, I decided I should take a break from the noise to my ear. I could feel the discomfort dwindle, but I have so much work I need to do I can't just not mix...
If I caused some minor damage to my ear, is it not good to keep listening even at lower levels? My ear isn't in throbbing pain, but I feel the discomfort especially in the upper mid frequencies. I have been trying to decipher if I have ruptured my ear drum w/o having to take a trip to the doctor.
Consider using garlic oil drops if you haven’t ruptured it.
@@jl.4317 oh its all good now fam
I have a question: I have had myringoplasty in january 2019. The incision was made behind the ear to repair the eardrum. Since then I have hearing loss. is it normal?
Apa sekarang pendengaran anda sudah normal kembali?
@@dederizal4357 TIDAK.
Currently I've both my ears 👂 having liquid coming out of them, with pain now reduced in the left ear, but more pain in the right ear. I've been using earbuds to clear inside for long, and now each time I get to bed I wake up to brown liquid spots all over the pillow, and some clot of that liquid in and out of the ears is seen... I've tried different antibiotics but I've not got any positive change... Could this mean am in trouble???
Try sleeping with 2 pillows and with your head slightly elevated so that it doesn't drain from your ear rather it drains through the eustachian tube.
Thank you so much, my ears been leaking fluid for a while and now I know why
Can you get a perforated ear drum without alot of pain?
Yes
That’s my current experience. I went to the doctor because my ear simply felt clogged and itchy. Turns out it was this.
@@fefemyluv what doctor suggested?
Went to the doctors today and they did a general check up. My left eardrum is completely broken apparently! I’m not in pain what so ever and hearing is fine, can anyone explain why I’m not in pain or anything but I don’t have an ear drum at the moment I dont know
Same problem
Lol this guy makes my ear problems seem so positive
What if you have no pain at all but like feel that you have a hole? Is the just being paranoid or actually having to hole on the eardrum without pain
Have a doctor look in your ear to confirm.
@@DrCliffAuD what if I use the blowing method where I pinch my nose won’t I be able to know of there is a hole because I would feel air go through the potentially ruptured eardrum? Please correct me if I’m wrong.
Yep, if you can blow hard enough to feel the air flow. I recommend you don't blow that hard incase there is no perforation. You might accidentally create one.
I used an earcleaner, i hitted my eardrum when i chew my food it hurts my ear...
Yup
Same
Dude i had extreme fever a few days ago and now my right ear pains (feels like something sharp poking) when i yawn. I came to see this because im really scared and i wanted to become a music producer
This was helpful, but now I'm concerned because I had some wax blockage going on for about a week and a half in both my ears. Flushed them out with ear drops. I think I got my left ear is good but my right is still weird. I can hear fine. Sound comes in pretty well, however, it still feels like there's something still in there. I am now concerned I may have ruptured my eardrum while using the syringe bulb they give you in a wax removal kit. I'm not in pain, it just feels like there's still some blockage and some pressure built up.
Same I had done a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and water (half and half) to flush my clogged ear and ever since than (2 days ago) I’ve been feeling mad weird. Like I hear sound a little differently and hurts to hear loud noises
I went to a walk in clinic then a week later had ear pain from sound. It’s been almost a month and it’s still here. Did urs go away?
@@muffinchannel8218 My case turned out to be an ear infection, but sound never hurt me, so I unfortunately can't say😅
@@AndrewPagel9628 Do you still have tinnitus problem?
So why is there yellow discharge and my hearing is bad, but I feel no pain?
Deontay wilder?
im worried because i hit my ear with the thing you use to clean your ear ot hurts and my ear feels stuff
Who's cleaning their ears while watching this? Lol
Hi
I’m cleaning my bumhole, do I win?
I used to get a lot of ear infections as a kid. Once I had so much build up that I was in a ton of pain. Eventually my ear drum ruptured, I remember screaming in pain, and then immediately feeling drainage and relief. Used medicated ear drops for a while. My hearing was deadened and sounded like I was underwater or muffled for quite a while. Never got tubes. I was told by a doctor that I have a scar on my ear drum, not sure if that’s a thing. Wondering if the ear drum is now weaker in the area where it ruptured, or if it’s safe to clean out my ears with drop/warm water?
is it bad, I poked my left eardrum but my right ear feels like it filled with water, but it doesn’t hurt.
