Check to make sure it's not too hot. Then put a drop of garlic oil in your ear. Lay on your side for about 15 minutes to keep the oil in your ear. Garlic is used in earache remedies because it's a natural antibiotic. It relieves the pain of the earache immediately.

Step 6
If your earache is the result of wax buildup in your ear, use hydrogen peroxide to loosen the wax. Pour some hydrogen peroxide in your ear and lay on your side to keep it in your ear. You'll hear the peroxide in your ear bubbling away. Once the bubbling start to calm down dump the peroxide out of your ear. This is one of the earache remedies I learned about from my doctor.
