Is it possible to have a ruptured eardrum after a lower face and neck lift?

I had a lower face and neck lift about one month ago. When I went into surgery my hearing was fine, but after surgery my hearing was muffled and I couldn't hear anything. When I asked the PS about it, she said it was probably blood or fluid in my ears. On my 10 day check up the PA scraped my eardrum and told me to clean my ears with peroxide, which I did. I went to an ENT and was told I had a reputured eardrum. Have you heard of this happening before? Could something have gone wrong during surgery
