Perforated Eardrum Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
5. Itching
This is a common but non-specific symptom associated with a perforated eardrum. The itchiness can be due to the excessive fluid drainage seen in patients with an underlying infectious condition.
It can also be experienced as the tympanic membrane starts to heal. Patients should avoid using any objects to scratch their ears as it could cause more damage to the area.
