### Patient: Doctor, I've been experiencing pus draining from my ear, diminished hearing, ringing in my ear, ear pain, and redness in my ear. What could be wrong with me?
### Doctor: It seems like you have a condition known as a ruptured or damaged eardrum, causing the symptoms you described. You may have suffered trauma to your ear or had an infection that caused the damage. We will need to examine your ear to confirm the diagnosis and determine the best course of treatment.
