      So today all of a sudden I felt like something popped in my good ear.

      It was weird like a bang.

      So I decided to touch a bit with my small finger.. the ear canal, and it hurt so bad, and it cracked and stuff...

      WTF?? I'm kinda scared again.

      I don't have T in this ear.

      It feels like if I had some fluid in that ear, and it burst a bit.

      I feel like if I had a bit of hair stuck in my ear.

      ohh god.

      and yes tomorrow is my T anniversary.
      what a good way to celebrate.

      What should I do??

      Or if you have some antibiotics start to take them while you wait for the appointment

      Not sure you'd want to take antibiotics before confirmation of bacterial infection. Antibiotics overuse is quite a serious issue.

      It's not really an issue of being safe to you (no drug is safe, unfortunately).
      It's a matter of limiting unnecessary use of antibiotics, as they lead to antibiotic resistance, and ultimately our inability to treat bacterial infections. People are dying because of this - it's quite serious.
