Discomfort In Ear After Listening To Loud Music, Irritation And Pain In Ear Drum. Help

About 4 days back I had put in my headphone to my ear not realizing that music was playing at a very high volume. I immediately reduced the volume, then I felt some discomfort in my left ear. Now even after 4 days I feel a sense of irritation and pain in my left ear toward the ear-drum area. I have not tried anything hoping that it would get better in some time. I have no history of any ear problems Read more at WWW.WWWW.WW

ENT Specialist 's  Response
Hi and thanks for the query,
There is a chance that you may have a torn ear drum,
Traumatic injuries of the drum usually heal well. So nothing to worry.
See an ENT specialist to rule out rupture.
Till then keep your ears dry and do not probe your ear.
Regards, Dr Kishori.
