Hello,
If your job is demanding normal ear drum and hearing, you must have some procedures for the tiny hole in your drum and for that it needs to be non-discharging ear.
Advise: Have and audiogram, treatment options:
1. Chemical application on drum which may take 3-4 sittings to get it, healed - you may try, it is not necessary that it will heal.
2. You may directly go through operative procedure.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. HIMANSHU DHANAK
