Suggest Treatment For Eardrum Injury

I had a qtip in my ear and left it there while I brushed my hair really quick. I accidentally hit the qtip and it pushed in my ear hard. I felt it in my throat and ear. There is blood and it sounds like I have water in my ears. It hurts when I take a shower and get water in my ear. This happened yesterday and now I m wondering if I should go see a doctor or just wait or it to heal.

Hi dear!

Thanks for consulting the Physicians at HealthCare Magic. I have worked through your case thoroughly, and I can easily realize your health worries. Being your physician, I reassure you not to worry as things will settle down very soon.
No you cant let it as it is and can't wait. Its an ENT Emergency. Dont waste time and rush to ENT SPECIALIST who will need to examine the ear and rest of the things he will discuss with you. If you leave it as such, you will get ear infection very soon and that may cause damage to the structures inside.
May you get very well soon and have a wonderful time ahead. Please don't forget to give your valuable feedback to help us assist you in a better way. Click at 'I Find This Answer Helpful' & give a five Stars too. Write a review about your experience with me.
