I got hit in the side of my head with a soccor ball. I think it broke my eardrum. When I plug my nose and blow like trying to unplug my ear air come out of my ear. Scarey?Does any one know how long it should take to heal? It has been 2 weeks? kinda worried? Maybe I should go to Dr. but what kind of Dr.? TIA

You probably got a small hole in the ear drum. If you can still hear o.k and there are no other problems chances are it will heal on it's own. Just to be safe, I do advise you to see a doctor. I had an injury to my ear where the ear drum was ruptured. Within four weeks, the ear drum had healed.

Thanks! http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/smile.gif Ill give it a couple more weeks then if not healed I'll go see dr. Im 31 weeks prego so I got enough Dr's appointments right now!
