What Causes A Burning Pain And A Bubbling Sound In My Ear?
Earlier today I was swimming and held my nose to pop my ears, and when they popped I felt something abnormal in my right ear and I felt a sharp burning pain running down from my ear and into my head. I went underwater to blow later to see if I had bursted my eardrum and could hear a bubbling noise coming from my right ear. Is it likely that I did rupture my eardrum? And if so do I need to go to the doctor or let it heal naturally?
