I'm scared cause I got slapped in the ear by my friend while wrestling and can't hear very good out of it what should I do? Is this permanent? Help me!

Hi, kindascared!

We can't diagnose you here. Your best bet is to go to a doctor.

Thanks!

I just don't want to make my mom freak lol any ideas?

Was it a slap or a punch? Was his hand flat or a fist?

Slap

If you don't want to get your friend involved, tell your mom you must have a wax buildup in your ears or something, because your hearing has changed recently -- sometimes you can hear just fine and then your hearing, at another time, is goofed up. Or some such description....

She won't get mad at my friend. I just want to know if this will clear up on its own

Like Clough said, since we aren't doctors here and have not examined you, we don't know. Your best bet is to get a medical opinion.

If your friend dislodged wax inside your ear, and the lump settled in front of your ear drum so that sound waves aren't getting through, yes, it will probably clear up once the lump moves or is cleaned out.

If your friend slapped you hard enough so your eardrum got broken, no, it won't clear up by itself.

1. Do you hear popping noises in that ear?
2. Has there been any blood leaking out onto your pillow at night?
3. Has there been any blood crusting inside your ear?
4. Does that ear hurt or ache?

Kindascared, is there a problem with you going to a doctor or at least a nurse?

Naw uhm wondergirl none of those symptoms just popping very little when I swallow

Does your hearing improve once in a while, especially after you hear the popping noise?

No not really

I don't know how long it takes to get a doctor's appointment where you live. If your hearing isn't any better by Monday morning before you go to school, ask your mom to make an appointment as soon as possible. You don't want to mess with your hearing. My husband did when he was a kid and now is deaf in one ear.

Okay I went to a doctor and they said I had a hole in my eardrum...... Can this be fixed?

How did you get a doctor appointment on a Saturday night or Sunday morning?

What did the doctor tell you? Certainly you asked, didn't you? Or are you diagnosing yourself?

Walk in clinic this morning...... He's sending me to a specialist

Did you ask questions?

No just listened to what he said. He sid I had a hole in it and asked if I needed a referral to see a specialist

Go to the specialist and be sure to ask questions! Start making a list NOW! Write them down!

Um, you first asked this question in March. Are you still having problems? Have you gone to a doctor?
