What are some home remedies to aid ear/sinus infection?!
Question: I was just diagnosed with an ear infection in both of my ears and a sinus infection. Ouch! I'm unable to sleep at all - and I'm wondering if there are any simple things I can do to help ease the pain. So far, medicine hasn't worked. I've tried chicken noodle soup and steam. Steam seems to just be temporary relief.. but I'd like to feel relief for at least an hour or two so I can fall asleep.

peroxide in the ear will help kill the bacteria also pouring some salt water into your nose and letting it drain out the other nose will help also for your sinuses, for the pain laying on heat helps an ear infection or using a blow dryer in your ear.
Sounds strange, but mix rubbing alcohol and vinegar in cup and pour in ear a few times a day. Works great.
try a couple of drops of warm olive oil in the ear. some eucalytus oil in the steam. a hot cloth on your face,or sometimes a cotton ball with a little black pepper on it and lay on that ear. you may want to consider getting a netti pot . or at least some saline solution nasal spray.
