What are the symptoms of a ruptured eardrum?

The main clinical symptom of a ruptured eardrum is pain inside the ear. Patients often say that their ears are like blocked with a layer of cloth and feel especially hazy, especially when they hear sharp, piercing sounds, they will feel obvious pain, and in severe cases, patients will also experience tinnitus, hearing loss, and bleeding inside the ear. It is recommended that patients with such symptoms should go to the hospital as soon as possible to have their eardrum checked to clarify whether there is a break in the eardrum. It is recommended that patients must not allow water to enter their ears to avoid infection when the eardrum is broken, which is not conducive to the re-repair of the eardrum and may form a long time perforation, affecting the patient’s hearing and life. Patients are advised not to use particularly sharp instruments to dig their ears and to protect their eardrums.
