How to Treat an Earache With a Natural Remedy

Have you ever felt an earache or sinus infection coming on and thought, oh no, a trip to the doctor and antibiotics? I personally, do not like to take any medications and am always looking for a natural remedy. Here is a natural and safe alternative made with items you already have at home.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Medicine dropper, towel, measuring spoons, rubbing alcohol distilled white vinegar, small bowl or small bottle with lid.

1. With your measuring spoons combine equal parts rubbing alcohol and distilled white vinegar in a small bowl. I usually use 1 tbsp of each. Stir together.

2. Fill your medicine dropper or small spoon with liquid and place 2 drops in your right ear. Lay on your left side for about 2-5 minutes then turn your head over onto your towel to drain.

3. Repeat Step 2 this time placing drops in your left ear and lying down on your right side.

4. Place remainder in airtight container.

5. I would recommend doing this 2 times a day. If earache persists more than a couple of days your infection might be more severe and require a doctor's attention.

Tips & Warnings

• I washed out a small medicine bottle with dropper (many aromatherapy and herbal items are sold in this type of bottle) and placed the liquid in here so it is always available when I need it.
• I am not a pharmacist or a doctor, and this may not work for everyone; however,
• I have recommended this to many friends and all have had success.
