that sounds dangerous op. I use a modified plastic straw that came with a juicebox to pick my ears. the only problem is that the plastic has gotten a little bent and I can't find the same kind of juice anymore to get another straw. one time I made the mistake of trying to pick at an itchy spot while I was playing half life. I thought I had the game paused, but right when I had the thing stuffed in my head a headcrab zombie appeared on screen. I jumped and it hurt like hell but there wasn't any blood so I guess I was pretty lucky.

Then chill for two hours or so. Make up your mind. Can be also that you blocked the ear way path with wax. It gets thinner the further in it goes from the opening. So it is fairly easy to block it with something like bent paperclip. Which is pretty stupid tool to clean ear with.

But here is a test. If you really must. Try to pour water inside, it wouldn't kill you even if it would reach the brain. If you did puncture your eardrum, you should feel considerable amount of pain as the water reaches the wound. If you didn't pierce it, no pain should be felt.

I'd suggest you to do the obvious though.

My most recent dream I dreamed that I woke up from the nap I was in and for some reason I was in the back seat of a car in the middle of a busy street which had rolled to stop and late to somewhere to a class that I would have instantly failed if I had missed.

I completely panicked, jumped out of the car while profusely apologizing to the angry motorists, piled into the front seat of the car and did a completely illegal U-turn while trying to figure out where I was from what I could see out the windows. Eventually I got to a small creek and woods on the other side of the bridge and attempted to figure out where the bridge was in relation to the places I knew.

Then I remembered that there was no creek or bridge for countless miles in any direction of where I live, no conceivable reason I would be alone and sleeping in the backseat of a moving car, I hadn't driven a car in months, and I wasn't late for any class at all.

I did have a semi-dream today though; For some reason I had to go to a hardware store to buy some shit, but it was dark out and I have no car, so I started walking there. On my way there some random 3D girl showed up, with a faggy macbook, who accompanied me to the store. It was underground, and had some kind of VR thing, which we volunteered to try out. I don't know what the fuck happened next, but I was inside Halo: Reach, running around a level, runnig away from a monster of sorts. I got scared towards the end, which is when I woke up.

Perforated Eardrum Overview

The eardrum (tympanic membrane) is a thin, oval layer of tissue deep in the ear canal. It helps protect the delicate middle and inner ear from the outside.

It is called an eardrum because it looks and acts like a drum. The eardrum receives vibrations from the outer ear and transmits them to the small hearing bones (ossicles), of the middle ear.

Because it is so thin, the eardrum can be ruptured or punctured. The hole exposes the middle and inner ear to damage or infection.
When to Seek Medical Care

Call a doctor immediately if you suspect you or someone you know has a ruptured eardrum and any of the following occur:

An uncontrolled spinning sensation
Difficulty walking
An abrupt change in hearing
A change in the ability to taste foods
You accidentally put your ear under water
The following symptoms suggest a potentially life-threatening complication and require immediate medical evaluation:

Stiff neck
High fever
The worst headache of your life
Numbness or weakness in face, arms, or legs
Difficulty talking or opening mouth
Continued vomiting
Pain or swelling behind the ear
Abrupt change in vision
Difficulty staying awake

Seriously, when I was unemployed I got sick and was puking all day which is majorly bad for me because I'm hypoglycemic which can mean coma or death.

I went to the emergency room. They had to shoot glucose directly into my veins. Total cost $1300. I paid NOTHING because after my hospital visit I got the bill, went back to the hospital, showed them I was unemployed and poof, the money I owed VANISHED.

Seriously they cannot and will not collect money for hospital/doctor visits for the inability to pay.

tl;dr it'll probably heal, but if you suffer the symptoms above you'll probably go permanently deaf or possibly die without medical treatment.

Probably in agonising constant pain that makes you claw your own ear off and smash your own head into the wall until your skull shatters and ruptures into your brain. It might be a good idea to see a doctor before you go mad from the sensation of blinding streaks of white-hot needles being smashed into your brain through your eardrum with a warhammer.

Anyway, keep it clean and dry to avoid infection.
