Question: How to nip the possibility of ear infection at this point!?
I am three days out of a brief flu-type bug!. It was like- I had a stuffy nose, then severe head congestion and trouble breathing strongly into my chest (but no chest congestion, just muscular weakness, then very slight chest congestion, and a slight productive cough very briefly, and then a tickle cough briefly!. This whole bug lasted only four days but ran the gamut as far as symptoms, and now, after two basically healthy days, I feel like my ear is becoming infected!. I strongly felt like I should've gotten a massage after being sick, and I didn't, and I still feel muscular soreness!. What should I do to prevent this from being an ear infection!? My lymph nodes are still inflamed, and my ear feels congested and sore/inflamed inside, but not sharply painful, but dully, vaguely painful, and threatening to be worse!. Can I stop it now!? Any asana, accupressure, or other tips!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Try this self massage: Place a finger over the cartilage that protrudes over the opening of your ear and press the cartilage in towards your ear several times rapidly!. It should not hurt at all, but should feel kind of like you are pumping your ear!. After you have done this several times take a finger and run it from that cartilage all the way down to your throat along the underside of your jaw!. Your finger will naturally find this soft path along your jaw to follow!. It sounds weird but it helps drain any excess fluid out of your ear and relieves pressure!.
Also avoid getting any water in your ears for a few days and if you do get water in them use a q-tip to dry it out!.
If you do get an infection and need something for pain try this: take a little bit of olive oil and either pour a drop into your ear or use a q-tip to swab olive oil around the inside of your ear!. Then hold a hot, wet wash cloth over it!. It will feel weird and slimy, but the olive oil numbs the pain and the hot wash cloth loosens the fluid so it can drain!.
I hope this helps, ear infections SUCK!Www@Answer-Health@Com

You are right, get a shiatsu massage or see a good chiropractor, who also does massage - I do and I think it's incredibly lazy of some chiropractors not to massage any!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ditch the milk and dairy products i say !.!.!.!.!.!.!.!. many many people find it extremely hard to digest lactose contained in milk and dairy products!.
Cow's milk contains proteins that are difficult for humans to digest; when these undigested proteins enter the lower digestive system, they putrefy and cause digestive problems!. Dairy products encourage the production of excess mucus in the body, burdening the respiratory, digestive and immune systems!. Not surprisingly, when you ditch the milk and dairy people more often than not experience markedly fewer colds and sinus & respiratory infections!.
Take a calcium & vitamin D3 rich supplement perhaps in a liquid form (easiest to assimilate) to ensure you get all your calcium on a daily basis !.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.and pump up your intake of fresh fish such as salmon and tuna and leafy and green vegies & fresh fruits~ the vegies are rich in both calcium and protein and the fish are rich in magnesium (antistress mineral), protein, EFA's~ essential fatty acids which are also fantastic for lowering blood pressure,levelling out any mood or stress levels you may have and bolstering your immunity, calcium and vitamin D (the vitamin D is essential for effective calcium absorption) !.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.?
The calcium found in vegies and fruits has a greater impact on bone health than calcium from dairy products anyways!.!.!.!. a study published in The Americal Journal of clinical nutrition (2002) found that a high intake of vegies and fruits has a positive impact on bone health, but dairy did not!.
Dairy products contain animal proteins, which speed the elimination of calcium from the body and make it more acidic!. This can cause calcium to leach from the bones and cause problems with magnesium (essential for healthy nerve and muscle functioning and for heart health ~ known as the antistress mineral) absorption, leading to osteoporosis!. In addition, we absorb only 30 percent of the calcium found in milk, compared to 40 to 70 percent of the calcium found in vegies and fruits!.
pretty disturbing actually when you consider the way the milk and dairy industry pump us with their commercials to drink more milk !!
Lactose intolerance can cause acid reflux, alternating bouts of constipation & diahorrea and will also lead to a compromised digestive system thus laying the groundwork for a body which is extremely susceptible to developing nose, throat, sinus, ear, bronchial, bladder and other infections as well!.!.!.!.!.!.!.

Please also ensure that whichever supplement you decide to buy doesn't contain any lactose, wheat, yeast, gluten, preservatives or flavorings, sugar or yeast as none of these have any place in a good quality supplement anyways!.
You really should go to your physician though & get him to take a look at your ear as well !.!.!.!.!.!.!.!. if it is infected then a low dose of antiobiotics may just be the trick to clear it up !.!.!.!.!.!.!. if it is only a mild infection and is left to escalate into something more severe you'll then get an awful lot more pain than what you bargained for !.!.!.!.!.!.!. be on the safe side & get the Doc to check it out for you as well as ditching the milk and dairy products!.
