How to tell if the eardrum is broken?

Tympanic membrane perforation is relatively easy to diagnose. Go to the hospital to see an otolaryngologist for a simple and ordinary examination.

Under the light or electric drill otoscope, you can clearly see the eardrum, whether it is a small perforation or a large perforation.

The main causes of tympanic membrane perforation are suppurative otitis media and trauma. Such as fighting and slapping, it is possible that the eardrum will rupture under the pressure.

The above health science knowledge is for reference only, and the specific situation needs to be checked in a regular hospital and judged by a professional doctor. Please don't diagnose and treat yourself.
