Raptured Eardrum after dive swiming pool

2023-08-30 11:09:17
I was learning swimming, I am really scared of deep water. My instructor asked me to take dive in 12 feet deep water that raptured my left eardrum,I thought it's water trapped in ear and 3 days I was trying all methods from google, finally I saw ENT who confirmed raptured Eardrum and gave me antibiotics and asked me to keep ear dry. Can I do swimming again once my eardrum heals?
