I think I have burst my eardrum at the theatre last night! How would I know?

I know it sounds unlikely

Went to see Never so Good at the NT last night (the one about Harold MacMillan)

They had a plane crash scene where the special effects were so loud - at one point my ear suddenly started huring excruciatingly. Has hurt on and off since and felt very odd when the wind blew in it last night/this am

Is still hurting but not as much

don't know,though I did have this when I was younger - can't remember what it felt like apart from hurting.When the doctor told me I was so shocked I almost fainted and had to be carried home in my brother's push chair (I was about 10)

well am going to the dr this pm to get it checked
I will be VERY cross with them if they have perforated it!

Surely they should ensure that levels of noise are appropriate??

this happened to my brother when he was 19 at a blur concert which I took him to.It was deafening at one point and he fely extreme pain.It has since got better but he has tinnitus so def get it checked out as I don't think my brother did
