Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain the symptoms of blocked feeling along with sucking of air through the ear or blowing out of air from the ear along with history of traumatic injury to the ear due to continuous slapping seems most probably due to Perforation in the arr drum that acts as a barrier to the air flow and as it is perforated there is flow or leakage of air..

I would suggest you to consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like otoscopy, x ray, MRI scan etc can be done for confirmation..

In case of perforation you can be advised a course of antibiotics, anti inflammatory painkiller and nasal decongestant sprays..
In case if perforation is large or does not heal with medication then surgical repair by doing Tympanoplasty can be advised..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
