small perforations heal within 3-5 weeks. The only precaution being that the ear should not get wet and that URIs need to be treated promptly.
The ear has remarkable ability to heal and clean itself. Please do not insert anything into the ear canal to clean it, unless performed by a professional under vision.
If the ear drum fails to heal by about a month- surgical repair of the drum may be planned.
