Are you experiencing ear pain, hearing loss, or a buzzing sound in your ear? You may be dealing with a perforated eardrum a condition that affects both children and adults and should not be ignored. At Tarabichi Healthcare, we provide expert care with some of the best ENT specialists in Dubai, offering advanced treatment for eardrum perforation, ear infections, and hearing loss.
What Is a Perforated or Ruptured Eardrum?
A perforated eardrum, also called a ruptured eardrum, occurs when there is a hole or tear in the tympanic membrane, which separates the outer ear from the middle ear. This condition can affect your hearing, cause pain, dizziness, and lead to repeated ear infections.
Ignoring the signs of a ruptured eardrum can result in long-term hearing damage.
Top Causes of Perforated Eardrum in Dubai
Knowing the causes can help you prevent and identify the condition early:
✅ Inserting Cotton Swabs or Sharp Objects
Using earphones, cotton buds, keys, or sharp tools can push earwax deeper or damage the eardrum.
✅ Loud Noises (Acoustic Trauma)
Frequent exposure to loud sounds (above 80 dB) from concerts, fireworks, or headphones can lead to a ruptured eardrum.
✅ Ear Infections
Middle ear infections (otitis media) can cause fluid buildup, increasing pressure that eventually tears the eardrum.
✅ Barotrauma (Pressure Changes)
Scuba diving, flying, or high-altitude activities may result in sudden pressure changes, stretching the eardrum.
✅ Trauma or Head Injuries
Blows to the head or ear can dislocate middle ear bones and rupture the tympanic membrane.
Symptoms of a Perforated Eardrum
If you experience any of the following, consult an ENT specialist in Dubai immediately:
- Sudden or sharp ear pain
- Hearing loss in the affected ear
- Fluid or pus discharge from the ear
- Ringing or buzzing (tinnitus)
- Dizziness or balance issues
- Whistling noise while blowing your nose
How to Diagnose a Ruptured Eardrum?
An ENT doctor will examine your ear using an otoscope or microscope. If there’s pus or earwax obstructing the view, it may be suctioned out.
You may also undergo hearing tests (audiometry) to measure the extent of hearing loss and assess eardrum damage.
