Whose had their eardrum pop?

I can barely hear out of my right ear and I think it could be my eardrum..the strange this is...I have not been blasting my iPod or been around any loud environment in a long time. I can hear water plugged up in there....I think I need to go to the doctor....doesnt hurt but it's annyoing as hell...

any tips?

would a q-tip make it worse?

nooo, not a joke. ear candling is supposed to be a remedy, but it can do more harm than good.

Would a q-tip make it worse? .. It's very possible you may damage your ear drum by stickin' q-tips in the middle ear.

Sounds like fluid build up in the middle ear. I would not advise stickin' anything in your ear..ever. ( lol i'm thinking of Richard Pryor and the monkey sticking his dick in Richards ear making a whiney noise).

Q-tips were made to clean the outer ear. Have it checked by your FD or ENT Dr.

oh man i had that like a year ago- i got the swimmer's ear drops and i took tylenol afterwards (just on the 1st day). if the drops don't work after a week see a doctor. but it should clear before then.

sounds like an inner ear infection. or, maybe a wax buildup
