How much time does it take for a perforated tympan (perforation 3mm) to heal itself?
Aug 1, 2013

Dr. Jean Esso Anesthesiology
Most ruptured tympanic membranes heal within a few weeks without treatment. If the hole in your ear doesn't heal by itself, you may need treatment.

Dr. Salim Saab Otolaryngology (ENT)
Usually, it takes one month to be healed especially if you put a patch on the perforation. There's no need for a surgery.
