Mango Leaves

Last week I got another painful ear infection.  My neighbor told me about a home remedy for ear infections that his family has used for three generations.  I thought I’d give it a try, and was surprised that it actually worked!  What you do is, get some mango leaves and extract the juice out of them.  Then, warm the juice up and use it as ear drops to be put in your painful ear.

Lobelia as Ear Infection Home Remedy

I had a painful ear infection this past week and my friend at work told me about a method of taking care of it.  You get a hold of some garlic oil and/or lobelia extract and put a drop into your affected ear.  Then rub your ear softly to massage the fluid in your ear.  If you do this about three or four times each day, it should do the trick.

Garlic Oil Natural Home Remedy Cure for Ear Infection

If you want to find a way to cure an ear infection and the pain that comes from it; this will really work good.  The wonderful thing about this advice I’m about to give you is that it will work for people of all ages from infants to the elderly.  Get yourself some garlic oil capsules and break one open and pour the oil into the affected ear.  Then, lay on your opposite side for about 20 minutes allowing the fluid to drain and soak into your ear really well.  After about 20 minutes, your ear shouldn’t be hurting anymore and the pain should be gone for good.  You should follow up in a few days, and repeat this process just to make sure.  This is one of the best home remedies for ear infection.

At the first hint of middle ear pain and infection, I take a capful of regular hydrogen peroxide and put some drops in the problematic ear.  I tilt my head for about five minutes before I tilt it the other way and let it drain onto a cloth.  This has always worked for me and I hope you have the same success!

If you suffer from chronic ear infections, one of the best natural treatments is to avoid the company of smokers, as second hand smoke actually blocks Eustachian tubes.  You should also avoid spending time with people that suffer from colds.  Hands should be washed regularly to avoid spreading infection.  Be sure that you don't touch your eyes and nose, as this can spread infection as well.  These are all wonderful natural cures for infection.

Hydrogen Peroxide as Home Remedy for Ear Infections

Recently, doctors have started using this great home remedy for ear infections.  I use hydrogen peroxide whenever I feel my ear begin to hurt.  Simply tilt the head sideways and then pour a bit of the solution into your ear.  You will feel it fizz in the ear, and then when the fizzing stops, turn your head sideways and allow the remaining solution to drain out.  You'll know that the infection is completely dead when the fizzing stops.  If you continue to feel pain in the ear, then repeat daily the same thing until the pain stops.

Onion as Home Remedy for Infection

To draw out an ear infection, try this great home remedy.  Take an onion and cut it in half.  Grill the onion sliced side down until it's hot.  Once hot, cover the onion with a paper towel and then apply the grilled side down to the ear.  This will actually draw the infection out of the ear.  You'll also be surprised to see how quickly this will end the pain associated with an ear infection.

If your ear is in pain, then you likely have an ear infection, and you should absolutely not put olive oil into the ear.  This can make your infection worse.  Olive oil is only good for softening ear wax.

Vapo-Rub

Use a q-tip to put a little Vicks Vapo-Rub into your ear but don’t swab it too deep.  Next pack a piece of cotton into your ear.  Leave a little cotton hanging out so you can pull it out.  Next put a heating pad or hot water bottle on the infected ear and lay down. This works really good to relieve the pain.

***

The deal is the heat.  No matter what you use with it, the heat is the main thing.

***

Garlic

Take a large peeled garlic clove and warm it in the oven for about 5 seconds.  Put it in the ear canal for awhile and it will attack the infection and relieve the pain.  Garlic is an excellent antibiotic.

***

Warm up a piece of bread and put it against the outside of the ear to pull out infection and bring relief.

***

Tea Tree Oil

Mix a few drops of tea tree oil with a few drops of olive oil on a small cotton ball and stuff this in your ear.  This is a great home remedy for ear infections and it works quickly.  The tea tree oil is well known for killing bacteria and the olive oil loosens wax and debris.

***

A number of these remedies talk about warm things and fluids in your ear.  I simply put some warm water in my ear and got relief.  It was not total relief but it helped. So if you have nothing else you can do this.

Onion & Garlic

I am 21 and this is the first ear infection I have ever had and the pain was really bad!  To make matters worse I had no insurance to go to the doctor.  I went on the web and found this site. I was reading how others talked about onion and garlic and olive oil but I didn’t read where anyone had put those together. So I did just that and it worked GREAT!  I was not a believer in the herbal thing but this has for sure changed my mind.  I absolutely know it will work for you and anyone else. Here is my recipe:  Take 4 big cloves of garlic and smash them into pulp and put them in a small pan.  Add some water and enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the pan.  Finely chop some onion.  Let this stew on low heat for awhile until the garlic and onion look translucent or done.  Strain this and then put some of it in your ear with a syringe or eye dropper.  Hold it in your ear for about 10 minutes.  This is one of the best ear infection natural home remedies.

To relieve pain caused by an ear infection, put a few drops of olive oil that has been warmed or some warmed up garlic oil into the ear that is infected.  The pain will be much better right away.

I was suffering from a really bad ear ache that was giving sharp biting pain on the entire side of my head.  I put some margarine in a pan and melted it down and then used a turkey baister to put a few drops in my ear.  I held it in there for around five minutes and then allowed it to drain out onto a towel.  This I did twice and with a gap of two hours in between.  My ear ache was completely gone in about an hour.  My mom did this for me when I was a kid.

***

Breast Milk

What we did in our family was to put a little breast milk in the infected ear.  It will clear an infection within one to two days.  I worked better than any antibiotics for all of my children.

***

Vinegar

If your ear ache is caused by swimmer’s ear then it should be treated differently than a bacterial ear infection.  Swimmer’s ear is caused by a fungus that starts growing in your ear canal and any type of fungus can be cured with vinegar.  You can mix clean water with white vinegar half and half.  Drop some of this into your ear and tug around on your ear lobe with your head tilted with your infected ear up to make sure to work it all the way down into your ear.  This will give very quick results and this is double true if you start the treatment early.  One night my son woke up with swimmer’s ear and after giving a fast treatment with vinegar and water, the pain started to go away in about 15 minutes and he went back to sleep.  In the morning his ear was completely cured.  Another method is to use rubbing alcohol in the mix with vinegar instead of water but the alcohol will cause stinging and is not really required. The acidic vinegar creates an environment that kills fungus.  As a side note, all sorts of vinegar and in different concentrations work really well for other fungal infections.  I use it on my head for dandruff and it gives instantaneous results.  For vaginal yeast infections I pour apple cider vinegar into my bath water and get quick relief and results.  Where fungus is present, vinegar is more effective than any over the counter remedy or prescription drug.  However, this is for fungus only.  It does not work on bacterial infections.
