You seem to be having perforation of the ear drum with conductive hearing loss. If the perforation is long standing then there is no medical treatment, surgery known as tympanoplasty is the only option for permanent cure
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
