Hello,

Don't worry. Get an audiometry, a tonnes test and Weber's test done then we can come to know about conductive deafness or senso-neural hearing loss. If it is senso-neural, it is difficult to recover but in case of conductive deafness due to perforation, you may recover easily with medication or with surgery.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
