I have had a perforated ear drum for three years now and i have yet to visit a doctor cause of my fear of pain and ear drops. advice? consequences?

Go to ENT.: It might be moot at this point, but an ENT doctor can take a look to see if it's even still ruptured at this point. You can always decide from there, and the actual examination shouldn't hurt at all.
