in my opinion traumatic perforation of ear drum, usually heals on its own. no ear drops or anything should be instilled in ear during this period. if even after 3-4 weeks it's not healing, and perforation size is big, not likely to heal by chemical cauterizing it's margin, a myringoplasty is advisable. vit c and nicotinic acid are conservative supplement help in healing of wound, you can take it. further more I would recommend you tab Chimoral- BR for fast healing.
