Ruptured ear drums are caused by an inner ear infection. Prior to the ear drum rupturing the pressure is unbearably painful. Once the drum ruptures the pressure is released and the pain subsides. The infection often (almost always) makes its way out of the hole in the ear drum and in a thick ***** mess inside your ear. The ear will continue to be painful and sound will cause discomfort until the repair of the drum completed.
The best thing to do is get antibiotics to get rid of the infection and help the healing process. You should always see a doctor when you have problems with your eye and/or ears complications caused by infection can be permanent if left untreated.
The hole in the drum caused by the rupture doesn't always heal over by its self requiring a skin graft to close it.
Make sure you keep the ear dry to avoid water making it's way into the inner ear causing further infection.
Go see your doctor.
