I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
A ruptured eardrum can result in hearing loss. It can also make your middle ear vulnerable to infections. A ruptured eardrum usually heals within a few weeks without treatment. But sometimes it requires a patch or surgical repair to heal.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
