Hi Singur

Here are some ideas to use to heal the condition.

Treat Both Ears: The simple, old-fashioned aids are sometimes very fast in giving relief. Always treat both ears, even if only one aches.

1.Garlic: When my little girl had an earache I put a piece of fresh garlic in her ear and it was better by morning. The previous alternative was to go to the doctor and pay a lot of money for penicillin.

2. Onion: Lightly bake a large onion, cut it in half and while warm (not hot enough to irritate the area), bind one half of the onion over each ear. Bandage in place and hold bandage on with a nightcap, white skullcap, etc., and leave on all night.

3.Camomile: Use a fomentation over both ears of three parts of camomile and one part of lobelia. Take two ounces orally (a wineglass full) each two waking hours. Leave the fomentation on the ears all night. (Cover fomentation with plastic or oiled silk, etc.).

4. Mullein: Use three to six drops of mullein oil in both ears several times each day. Insert it upon retiring for the night, and, as before, plug the ears with cotton. Place a fomentation over the ears all night of three parts mullein and one part lobelia.



Best of health to you

Try putting a few drops of ear wax remover in your ear. If that doesn't help clear things up in a few days then make an appointment to see your doctor and make sure you don't have
an infection. When you are over your cold then you ear should clear up. Clogged up ears while battling a cold is normal. When
you sinuses are full they can leak into your ears causing the
canal to swell. You can also try a warm compress against your
ear to help soften the wax.

Please don't do the onion thing. Hope you're not married with with onions on your ears. you need to go to the drugstore and get an ear wax cleaning kit. I've used one it hurts at first to blow the old wax out ... But It will feel better after. If that doesn't work go to the emergency room. They can do it for you. I've been through it. It's misery. It is a rubber blue thing, that people also use to clean out a babies nose .. It will work put the solution in the rubber kit and insert it in your ear, oh it will tell you how to do it. Good luck, I have suffered with that it's bad.
