Minor holes in the eardrum usually resolve spontaenously, but in view of your chosen occupation, it may be worth seeking a specialist opinion.

Interestingly, once a perforation occurs, it tends not to cause too many problems when flying, as the pressures between the outer and middle ear tend to equalise- but again, seek the help of a specialist.
