Ear pain problem
I am suffering from major ear pain and nothing seems to be helping. I have been making herbal medicine for years, but just can’t find something to beat this. I’m pretty sure it’s an infection because my throat is sore on that side and all around my ear is swollen. Any ideas would be appreciated.
answer:
Warm up some Castor oil with minced garlic. When it is cool enough to not burn the inside of your wrist,strain and put a few drops in both ears and keep in with cotton balls. Put the garlic back in the oil that you strained out and save the oil in the fridge for use again. Do this every night. Massage in a downward motion under the ear lobe and behind the ear with Vicks Vapor Rub. Wrap a warm piece of cloth around the neck and pin together,after massaging the neck with Vicks. Also wear a warm cap on the head at night. Tincture of Cleavers is good also take lots of vitamin C and fresh squeezed lemonade warmed with honey and a tablespoon of brandy added-will help you sleep.
another remedies:
Take two cloves of garlic and mince. Add to one ounce of olive or other mild vegetable oil and heat on low for about twenty minutes or set in sun for one day. Strain into a dropper bottle and add a couple drops to infected ear then put a sterile cotton ball into ear to hold inside. Replace two or three times daily. Before adding the oil to your ear each time. Place a cupful of warmed Hydrogen Peroxide into the ear and let bubble then tip the head to allow to escape.
Take a handful of Mullein leaves and chop up. Do the same as with the garlic.(you can mix these two remedies together if you want)
There are also Homeopathic remedies for earaches that work well in both drop and tablet form.
I also highly recommend Colloidal silver. You can take this internally as well as placing some warmed into the ear.
All of these are effective in clearing infections. The sooner caught the sooner cured.
