Home remedie for ear ache, and stuffy nose! anyone?

Tea tree oil will work for both. First, the ear ache, mix 10 drops of mineral oil and 5 drops Tea tree oil, put into ear canal, keep head tilted to allow oil to reach the inner ear. It will feel a little warm for about 30 seconds. But the ear ache should be gone rather quickly. For the stuffy nose, heat up a cup of hot water, add 10 drops of tea tree oil, form a tent with a towel over your head and the hot water/tea tree oil. Breath in the vapors both with your mouth and your nose. Do this until the water is not steaming anymore (about 10 minutes) You'll need to blow your nose by then anyway. KEEP YOUR EYES SHUT while breathing the vapors, because your eyes will sting from the heat/oil. Also, you can dab some tea tree oil around the nostrils to keep from getting stuffy. You may have to do this a few times through out the day but it works. Sometimes a stuffy nose leads to a sore throat (its gotta drain somewhere) if you get a sore throat, gargle with a glass of water with 3 to 5 drops of tea tree oil...it taste terrible but will kill bacteria in the throat and lessen the pain and duration of a sore throat. If you ever get cold sores, or fever blisters because of colds, use the tea tree oil as a topical to clear them up faster. And since summer oughta be here any time now (I'm up North, we're expecting frost tonite) tea tree oil can be used to stop mosquito bites from itching. It has a bunch of uses, so if you buy a bottle (sold in 1 oz bottles for about $11.00) you'll have it for what ever comes up. Its a first aid kit in a bottle and I always keep it stocked at my house. Can't live without it.
