Can Hit From Netball Causes Ear Blocked Completely And Audibility?
Around 13 hours ago I was hit in the ear with a netball. At the time it instantly sounded like I was in a big echoey chamber and everything was muffled. It slightly improved, but now it feels like my ear is completely blocked and I can't hear properly out of one ear. Is this temporary, or should I seek medical advise?

Hi,
It is likely that due to hard impact on ear there might be having some damage to ear drum or even rupture of tympanic membrane giving rise this problem.
It is advisable to consult ENT surgeon and get clinically examined.
Ok and take care.
