How can you burst an eardrum?
Too much pressure can rupture an eardrum. For example, I ruptured my brother's eardrum many years ago with one of those pool noodles. We were fighting with them in the pool and I smacked him in the side of the head with it. The force of impact directly over his ear created enough pressure inside of his ear cavity to actually rupture his eardrum. Another thing that can rupture/burst an eardrum is simply sticking something that doesn't belong inside of your ear too deep, physically puncturing the eardrum. Although eardrums can burst, they can also heal. However, the older you get, the more difficult it becomes for your body to repair an eardrum.
Can ear drum rupture from blowing nose?
Yes, it is possible for a forceful blowing of the nose to cause the eardrum to rupture. The sudden increase in pressure in the nasal cavity can be transmitted to the middle ear through the Eustachian tube, potentially causing the eardrum to rupture. It's important to blow your nose gently to avoid this risk.
How might an excessive loud sound burst your eardrum?
An excessive loud sound, such as an explosion or gunshot, can generate a high level of pressure that can cause the eardrum to rupture. This can happen because the rapid change in air pressure from the loud sound wave can exert too much force on the delicate eardrum, leading to a tear or rupture. Once the eardrum is ruptured, it can result in hearing loss and other complications.
What type of energy causes the eardrum to vibrate?
Sound energy causes the eardrum to vibrate. Sound waves travel through the air and when they reach the eardrum, the vibrations are converted into electrical signals that are sent to the brain for interpretation.

Does a burst ear drum hurt?
A burst eardrum is when the thin flap of skin in your ear leading towards your cochlea vibrates too much and tears, this causes the liquid from your cochlea to flow out of your ear, this can be very painful and lead to not being able to work out which way up you are as the liquid inside your cochlea tells you what way up you are by settling.
