  1. you don't.

    hope you don't mind your ear drum busting and going def.


  2. Ear drainage – if you see blood or pus draining out of the ear, then it is probably an infection with a ruptured eardrum. DON'T WORRY! These almost always heal just fine, and once the eardrum ruptures the pain subsides.

  3. Not something to fool with Jen. The quicker you see someone the better; don't delay.

  4. I agree with the others.  You can't!  Ear infections, if not treated, can lead other more dangerous infections.  When I went to the Doc for my last ear infection, I let it go hoping my immune system would take care of it.  Instead, I ended up with a sinus and bronchial infection as well. I told the Doc that I didn't want to take anymore antibiotics, but he informed me it was necessary to treat ear infections with antibiotics and that not seeking treatment could ultimately lead to bacterial meningitis which is bad news.  You need to get treated.   The main problem with taking antibiotics is that people stop taking them when they begin to feel better which could leave some bacteria alive and resistant the next time around.  Just follow the directions on the medication and take all the medication to make sure the bacteria are dead and you should be just fine.

  5. consult ur EENT specialist to make it sure the diagnosis eventhough yuor taking an antibiotic.  

  6. Best to get a prescription, but I understand your aversion.  A natural way to treat the infection would be to add a few drops of pure tea tree oil to 1/4 cup warm olive oil.  stir.  Then drop a small amount of the mixture into the ear.

  7. I got rid of an ear infection without antibiotics, believe it or not, but it was very painful, and I was kind of experimenting, but guess what it worked!

    I put black cumin oil in my ear, and it hurt like ***, but the infection cleared and never returned.

  8. You don't. Go get a scrip for antibiotics, knucklehead.

  9. is it pus or just drainage? itchY? I had one and dr gave me antibiotic's and prescribed fungal drops that are for athletic foot cause i was getting fugal infection in the ear told me to dry them with hair dryer til wetness drys and to use ear plugs while in shower and swimming

  10. Where is the pus coming from...if it is from the ear canal, you can lose your hearing or worse...go to a doctor, for heaven's sake!  Don't you realize an infection can go to your brain?  Especially if you have a fever, are nauseated or vomiting.  Get some help and good luck.



  11. My ENT prescribed me an antiseptic powder called Medi Pulv that comes in a puffer type bottle.  The powder dries up moisture in the ear and help clear up the infection (has iodine in it).  It is available at chemists.

    BTW You can damage your ears and hearing permanently by not treating infections so if it doesn't heal it is best to get it checked.

    Good luck.
