Ear Infection!

[AHarper]

I have had a pain in my ear for the last several day and it just seems to be getting worse  But when I woke up yesterday morning I couldn't hear out of my ear at all I don't have a fever but the pain is excruciating I can't eat that much because it hurts to move my jaw and all I have been doing to stop the pain is taking tylonel and putting a heating pad against my ear it stops the pain for maybe an hour if I'm lucky But I don't know what to do Please Help Me!!

I have issues with my ears. When my sinuses are clogged, it puts pressure on my euchastian (spelling?) tubes or something. I don't have problems with actual infections but I picked up some stuff from a local health store called Ear Therapy by Pure-le Natural. It says it's good for a whole bunch of stuff including infection. Maybe you could try to find something like that?

It is just olive oil infused with Calendula petals, garlic bulb, Mullein flowers, St. John's Wort Herb, White Willow Bark and Vitamin E.

It cost me about 10 dollars.

I've also seen a lot of instructions on the internet (do a search) for how to make your own garlic or onion oil for ear infections. They are supposed to work really well.

I cetaintly don't think this next one is going to be the "be all end all", but maybe it would help to chop an onion in half, microwave it for about 30 seconds, wrap a cloth around it and hold it to your ear. BE CAREFUL! IT WILL BE VERY HOT! You might have to let it cool a bit. I read that on the internet when I thought my ear problems were caused by infections. I tried it and it seemed to help with the pain, but ultimately didn't fix the problem because it turned out, infection wasn't my problem.

Good luck!!!

Thank you for your advice but I went to the doctors and they said I have swimmers ear so they prescribed me drops but thank you so much for replying :) I really appreciate it :)
