Digging the ear touches the eardrum and if it only causes pain, its an indication that it only plays a tenderness to the eardrum with peripheral damage and does not cause perforation of the eardrum. Treatment is mainly symptomatic. For obvious pain, use ibuprofen capsules or diclofenac sodium capsules. If congestion and edema are more obvious, its possible to take Yunnan Baiyao capsules orally while keeping the ear dry. However, digging the ear leads to tympanic membrane perforation, at this time it must be strictly forbidden to enter the ear with dirty things, while dirty water is not allowed to enter. At the same time the nose must be kept clear of nasal passages, don’t catch a cold, and don’t allow to blow your nose hard. As long as there is no sign of infection after the tympanic membrane is perforated, there is a 0% or higher chance that it will heal itself.
