Ear problems

Anyone had a inner ear drum pushed out and got infected? Mine did. Went doc and said it got infected taking antibiotics anyone know how long took before they had 100 hearing back. Mine right now only feel muffled and sometimes feel like water inside. Noo pain or pressure thank God. Taking meds for 7 days

 

Any remedies that actually worked for you? Let me know

 

My ear feels very full, and the little sound I do hear is very electronic sounding. If I talk on the phone, the people sound like chipmunks--if I can hear them at all that day. TVs, alarm clocks, and radios also sound very tinny

I busted an ear drum two years ago, not from infection though.
I was almost completely deaf in that ear for 3 months. Then I got all my hearing back over the course of a week or two.

 

Is this the best place on the internet you could find to get medical advice ?

 

WebMD will just convince you it is cancer.

 

Maybe it's not an infection.....maybe it's this

Took 3 months or 2 weeks?

 

Just seeking if people had the same problem in the past and how long took and what they did to help heal and fix it.

 

I was entirely deaf in that ear for three months but once the hearing started to return it took about 2-3 weeks for it to go from almost like a muffled sound to full hearing again.

Tip: if you swab your ears stay away from peroxide and alcohol and do not stick the swab any deeper than just the cotton part going into the ear. You can damage the drum by shoving swabs deep into the ear.

 

What about olive oil drops

 

Mine only muffled. It might have to deal with stress right now idk. If I lie down it clear and when I get up it muffled.

 

Glad to know I’m not the only one with f’d hearing this year

 

I wouldn’t if you have an infection. Best case is to keep it dry.

 

Kept it dry 3 weeks now

 

Is it getting better?

 

Yes. It only get muffled a little and it almost normal. I yawn or swallow hard it clear it up, but it happen a lot

 

OP give it time. With ear infections comes inflammation of the Eustachian tube which connects the inner ear to the throat. When inflamed, this tube is unable to equilibrate the pressure within the inner ear to the environmental pressure. This can lead to you feeling like your ear is plugged, just like it feels when you're in an airplane or driving over a mountain pass. The inflammation will slowly improve, sounds like it already is, just be patient.

 

Yea hope soo. Shut is irritating

 

Back to normal finally after a month
