Yes I have cured lots of ear infections with a drop of garlic oil mixed with olive oil. It works great! Just put a drop of this mixture right in the ear.

Take garlic capsules (garlic is a natural antibiotic) and Whole Foods has a product by Herbs for Kids called "Willow and Garlic Ear Oil" that works really well.

Answer 7

Answer 8

I dip a cotton ball in hydrogen peroxide and squeeze it in my ear. The garlic and olive oil remedy someone suggested is good too.

Answer 9

Go to a nutrition store and ask them. They have a book they refer to and should tell you your answer there. Best if you can go to a doctor, before it gets worse. Do both. I believe in taking the proper nutrients on a regular basis to build up your immunity. A nutritionist can advise what to take.

bulk UP on some: Olive Leaf Extract

take some Oregano internally and apply some to the ear externally with a cotton ball.  also one could boil a pearl of garlic, not mushy, and place in the ear holding it in place with gauze.and tape.

Answer 11

I've used a couple of drops of Hydrogen Peroxide a couple times a day for 2 or 3 days in the ear. Always works for me or my wife.

Don't use melalueca oil (tea tree oil) in your ear.

Answer 13

I put a bit of rubbing alcohol in a glass with some ice (to get it cold) then drop a few drops in my ear.  That helps but does not cure.
