Try putting hydrogen peroxide in your ears, this could help with an ear infection. To try it, place a few drops of hydrogen peroxide in your affected ear, let it sit for a few minutes, then tilt your head over a sink to let the fluid drain out before rinsing off your ear. This is a very old folklore and natural remedy.
Yes. Depending on the ear infection, there are several natural methods. If there is not too much of a fluid build up, a localized garlic oil treatment can be effective. There are also homeopathic remedies, herbal remedies and hydrotherapy treatments that can be used but I would not recommend self-treating without specific guidance from a trained professional.
Yes! There are some no-invasive natural treatments that help right away. Then you need to get to the root of the problem and remove the cause.
Yes! Grapefruit Seed Extract and colloidal silver are some of my favorites. Several drops in each ear multiple times per day. I like to boost general immunity at the same time, using things like Vitamin C, elderberry, Vitamin D, echinacea, and zinc.
Yes! There are a few options. Depending on the severity of the ear infection, there are some great herbal therapies that can promote an antibacterial and antiviral property to the infection. I do warn because ear infections can spread quickly and move closer to brain tissue which can then lead to a more serious infection. However for mild cases of ear infections, over the counter herbal tinctures can work well.
