I had surgery for eardrum repair
There was a small hole in my left ear, and from last one month before surgery my ear was getting wet due to water. It's been 15 days after surgery initially there was heart beat kind of sound in my ear for 4-5 days.
Then everything got normal after 8 days they removed dressing. But on 14 the day of surgery suddenly I am feeling continuous noise like vibrating.
Is this means my surgery was unsuccessful? Because for 6-7 days it was perfectly fine. And suddenly it started again. Please advise

After surgery such as tympanoplasty it is common to have symptoms such as your for atleast three weeks. It is not really abnormal. Complete recovery and healing may take upto three months. Unless pus starts coming out of your ears, you need not worry much
Next Steps
Consult the surgeon who did surgery for more information and necessary treatment if required
