Just looking for some advice 🙂

Friday just gone, I woke up in terrible pain with my left ear. Went to the doctors and found out that I had a perforated eardrum! the doctor didn’t give me anything to help with it, which is understandable, can put anything into a hole in my ear 🤣. Except just to keep taking ibuprofen and paracetamol which I’ve been doing ever since!

I like to go clubbing a lot and I have a funny feeling that the loud music may have caused this🙄. I know this may sound silly but is it too soon to go back out? I don’t want to ruin my health anymore than it is!

Also has anyone else had this problem? How long did it take for yours to heal? I’ve lost hearing in that ear & I constantly hear a little ringing sound! How long did it take for your hearing to come back? And should I be worried that it could affect me long term?
