{{SK}} Tympanic membrane perforation; eardrum - ruptured or perforated


==Overview==
==[[Perforated eardrum overview|Overview]]==
Rupture or perforation (hole) of the [[eardrum]] can occur in [[infection]], [[Physical trauma|trauma]] (e.g. by trying to clean the ear with sharp instruments), explosion or loud noise. Flying with a severe cold can also cause perforation due to changes in air pressure and blocked [[eustachian tube]]s resulting from the cold. This is especially true on landing.


Perforation of the eardrum leads to [[conductive hearing loss]].
==[[Perforated eardrum historical perspective|Historical Perspective]]==


The perforation may heal in a few weeks, or up to a few months. Some perforations require intervention - this may use a paper patch to promote healing (simple procedure in the office of an ear, nose and throat specialist), or surgery ([[tympanoplasty]]).
