I think I may have ruptured one or both of my ear drums. It's hard to hear from both but the right one hurts and it's harder to hear. No bleeding but I accidentally used hydrogen peroxide in my right ear before I realized what may have happened. I had someone look at it with a flash light and they said it looked scratched. I've made an appointment with my doctor but I won't be able to see them for 5 days, do I need to get help now?

maybe ruptured ear drum
You should schedule an appointment with a board certified ENT physician. That doctor can evaluate your ears and conclude if you have or have not ruptured your eardrum. In the meantime do not put anything in your ear. Keep your ear dry when you shower or bath and do not swim until you have had an examination.
