My friend accidentally smacked me in the left ear ( direct hit). Now when I try the "ear drum perforation test", pluging my nose and breathing out, I can hear/feel air coming out of my left ear.

The odd part is, my right ear was ringing for a few hours after he hit me and has been feeling plugged up since he struck my left ear. I plan on seeing the doctor soon but I just find it odd my right ear is affected.

Any ideas as to why my right ear feels more messed up then my left?

Why haven't you been to an actual doctor yet?
