Is it possible to still hear with a newly ruptured ear drum?!


Question: Yup - a perforated ear drum usually just has a small hole in it so the rest of the membrane can vibrate. It's like if you took a snare drum, and used a pencil to poke a hole - it's still going to work. This will heal over time and your hearing will recover as well.

it's hard to tell. you should have it repaired by a surgeon to put your ear drum back together. you should also have to treat the ear infection. it may take some time but if all goes well, you'll be able to hear again.

see a doctor
