Home remedies for ear ache/ infection?!

If you have a true ear infection, nothing is going to clear it up but antibiotics!. Infections left untreated can actually move down into another part of your body (like your hip bone: I've seen it happen) Then you may be hospitalized!. Ear infections, left untreated can also lead to ruptured ear drums, and hearing loss!.
Go to your local Health Dept!. You can see a doctor there, and they won't charge you much!. These home remedies are probably good to relieve the pain, but not so good at killing infections!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I, too, have no health insurance!. But, an ear ache is something that I have had twice over the past few years and couldn't get anything to cure it except antibiotics from the doctor!. I had to give in and visit the doctor before it got well!.

I can tell you that if you use a hair dryer on a warm setting on your ear for a few minutes, it will help to relieve the pain for a little while!. Also, a heating pad on the ear will relieve the pain for a bit!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Go to a Health Food store and pick up some ear candles!. You'll need some help, especially if you've never used them before!. Ear Candles are hollow tubes of linen that are tapered at the end and are coated with beeswax!. You'll need a paper plate and a glass of water nearby!. Cut a hole in the center of the plate, stick the candle through the hole!. it should be a snug fit!. place the tapered end in your ear, and lite the top of the candle, The plate acts like a visual barrier, and protects you!. The flame draws built up ear wax in the ear canal!. You should hear some pops and cracks!. When the candle burns down 3/4 of the way dip it in water to extinguish the flame!. Afterwards you should follow up with sweet oil, or Murine ear drops!. Peroxide also works!. 3-4 drops should do it, twice a day!. It's interesting to cut open the remaining part of the candle to see how much ear wax was expelled!. I have health insurance but would rather try to solve a problem like this naturally instead of going to the ER!. If you feel you must see a DR see if there are any Urgent care clinics in your area!. It's usually cheaper, and the wait isn't as long!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
