Perforated Eardrum Care | King’s Pharmacy
Comprehensive Solutions for Perforated Eardrums
A perforated eardrum, or tympanic membrane perforation, can cause hearing loss, pain, and vulnerability to infections. At King’s Pharmacy, we offer custom treatments to support healing and protect your ear from further complications.
What Is a Perforated Eardrum?
A perforated eardrum occurs when the thin membrane separating the outer and middle ear is torn or ruptured. This can result from trauma, infection, or sudden pressure changes, such as during flights or loud explosions.
Symptoms of a Perforated Eardrum
- Sudden, sharp ear pain (may subside quickly)
- Hearing loss or muffled hearing
- Drainage of fluid or blood from the ear
- Ringing in the ear (tinnitus)
How to Treat and Prevent Perforated Eardrums
Treatment Options:
- Antibiotic Ear Drops: Prevent infections while the eardrum heals.
- Pain Management: Custom pain-relief solutions to ensure comfort during recovery.
- Surgical Repair (ENT): Severe cases may require tympanoplasty to repair the eardrum.
Prevention Tips:
- Avoid inserting objects into the ear canal.
- Protect ears from loud noises and sudden pressure changes.
- Seek immediate care for ear infections to prevent ruptures.
