Hi,
There is a chance of tympanic membrane rupture / perforation. Kindly take him to ENT specialist immediately. This need examination of ear canal and ear drum, as a perforated ear drum may need to be re-positioned and fixed. Meanwhile, give him paracetamol for pain relief.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
