You can use earphones without much of problem but make sure to clean the tip of ear phones before using. Make sure water does not enter your ear. You may require surgery known as tympanoplasty for permanent closure of perforation
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
