Ear Problems

[Guest guest]

I am having a problem with my ear and wonder if I can

get some advice? A

few days ago while I was washing my hair, I used a

hair conditioner that

got into my ear. Lots of it ! Now I am having lots of

pressure in that

ear. I have put peroxide in it hoping to bubble some

of it out...but it

is still the same/ Any help?

TIA,

Pearl

 

Hi Pearl,

I've never posted before but I wanted to tell you I

have had much success using ear candles for a variety

of ear problems. (I'm a mom of 3 children ranging in

age from 4-15). In case you aren't familiar with them

they are strips of muslin dipped in wax, (bees wax I

think) and wound into a conical shape. You put the

pointed end just inside the opening to the ear, and

light the open end. It creates a gentle vacuum and

removes excess ear wax, etc. This might work well in

your case. Try your health food store, that's where I

get mine. They seem to run about $2 or so each. Seems

they usually keep them at the counter so you might

need to ask about them. I always finish off with

peroxide and that seems to have cured many ear aches.

Might sound a little odd, but works quite well.

Namaste,

Claire

 

PS...it'd probably be best to have someone help with

this little operation. They can burn pretty

intensely. I always keep a spray bottle of water or a

glass of water at the ready. ;o)

Regular doctors hate ear candles for some reason. I am not sure why,

although the rush of sound you hear when one is working is very

interesting.

 

One old-time standard herbal remedy for ear problems is Mullein Oil,

which is widely available. You can put a drop or two in the ear.

Caution: it should be kept refrigerated because it can spoil. I find

that if Mullein Oil doesn't work within 2 or 3 days, then a general

immune system remedy is needed.

 

Using peroxide in the ear is a bit dangerous. If the stuff is not

diluted enough, you could get burns.
