Answers:
You may have perforated your eardrum!. I had the same thing then I got knocked against a wall and my ear suctioned on!. Do NOT shower or get any water in your ear, and see an ear/nose/throat specialist immediately!. He may give you either some antibiotics or steroids to promote healing!. Buy some cheap earplugs (they cost about $1-2) and make sure you wear them every time you go in the shower!.
This usually takes 4-12 weeks to heal, depending on the size of the hole created!.
