Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My ear just started hurting today. The pain has been getting worse throughout the day. It hurts when I burp, swallow, and somewhat when touching it. I used to get ear infections all the time when I was a lot younger and had tubes put in my ears once. Not sure what would cause an ear infection if I have one, I haven t went swimming and I don t have any other symptoms. What could this be and can I treat it at home?
Hi 1.Fresh, pressed garlic, olive oil, tea tree oil, and aloe vera (all mixed & warmed up) and a few drops in my ear enclosed w/ a cotton ball 2.Take a cup of Mustard oil (available in Indian grocery stores) heat it and add 3 tablespoon of Ajwain seeds (carrom seeds) (only available in Indian grocery stores)bring it to a boil, let it cool. seive it and remove the seeds. Add 3-4 drops of oil in the affected ear, 3 times a day. You could feel some relief till you consult your ENT specialist
