Trauma to the ear can result in rupture of the tympanic membrane, laceration or trauma in the canal, dislocation of the small bones in the ear, injury to the inner ear and so on. You need to visit an ENT specialist to examine the extent of injury, site of injury and you will need a pure tone audiometry.
Next Steps
How many days ago was the injury? If the ear is dry and there is no discharge, antibiotics may not be required. Antihistaminics, nasal decongestant and pain killer sos should help.
Health Tips
Keep your ear dry. Ninety percent of traumatic perforations heal but this can only happen if there is no local infection. Please avoid water/ear drops/ oil being instilled in the ear as they can cause contaminants from the outer canal into the middle/inner
