Have I burst my eardrum?

Question:

Last nite I blew my nose and my ear popped quite badly, it really hurt right down the side of my neck, I am now in constant pain and the wax is running from my ears (Not in streams but more than normal). I also now have a strange wooshing noise in my ear and I have felt like I was going to pass out a few times today. If there is any medically trained people out there have I burst it and if yes what can I do?
Thanks
A very sore invilid

Answers:
I suspect you have done just that, I doubt if that is wax coming from your ear, it may be mucous from your cold. The ear drum is just a thin skin like membrane that will heal itself quite quickly, once the pressure difference between inside and out is equalised. However if it continues to discharge and be painful, you need to get your GP to check it.

Go to the Dr. right now.

everything is connected up there. you are probbly really sick and mocus is just coming out from everywhere.

Dude dont ask us little people go to the doctor and get treated/

Home remedies?

dont blow ur nose so hard anymore. U are going to hurt yourself. Dont force the mocus to come out,

Sorry buger girl I hope you feel a lot better soon.

Adios.

go and see your G.P a burst eardrum is extremely painful

First of all, you should definitly see a doctor.

Also, if you can still hear, then you didn't burst an eardrum.

Plus, I've never heard of bursting your eardrums without any actual physical interference going into the ear.
Could it be a ear infection?

If I were you, I'd go see a doctor. At the very least, call and speak to a nurse and ask if this is something you need to make an appointment for.

OUCH! Yes you did burst your ear drum and you should get to the doc asap, that recently happened to my friend and she ignore it an her ear started bleeding an she couldnt hear anything out of it.. I hope it feels better i know ear aches hurt like helll
