If you are also having trouble hearing then you may have damaged your tympanic membrane.. Please visit a nearby ent specialist as soon as possible and avoid putting ear drops till you visit a specialist. If there is perforation it may heal in 6 weeks if it is kept dry and drops or water in avoided from entering in the ear
