Simply having a perforation of ear drum does not cause so much pain in ear and headache. The most probable causes have to be found out and treated. I would advise you to consult another ENT surgeon senior and experience in ear problems after consulting the family and friends. * Insist on complete ENT examination * CT scan the ears, sinuses and nose, this gives a better understanding * Stop old medicines that are causing you problems * Audiometry * Relevant tests of blood like CBC, sugar for diabetes and any other as indicated.
All these will give a proper diagnosis and cause of your symptoms. Once a cause is found a proper medical management and surgery if indicated should help you the best.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. T. Chandrakant, General Surgeon
