Best Answer

A hot water bottle wrapped in a soft cloth or under your pillow case will help. Warmth to the ear canal often soothes, try a small amount of heat rub like Tiger balm or A535 just under the ear and down under the jawline (not too much) The warmth radiates into the ear canal and settles things down.

Another simple remedy for an ear infection has worked for us and our children every time: one drop of garlic oil/clear garlic juice in half a teaspoon of warm oil (olive, almond, something natural) poured directly into the ear. Massage under the ear to make sure it penetrates into the canal fully.

Also if you continually drink white milk, it brings comfort.

Usually applying heat helps. So if you have one of those heat packs, boil/put it in the microwave, and place it on your ear. Make sure it's not too hot though. It should go away within 2-3 days, if not, you should probably see a doctor about it, especially if it gets worse.

The treatment for ear infections depends on what part of the ear is infected. If you think you or your child has an ear infection, you should go see your doctor to get it properly diagnosed and receive treatment. If an ear infection is allowed to go too long it can have some nasty effects.

Can a staff infection make you feel exaughsted or warn down?

ANSWER A STAPH (short for STAPHYLOCOCCUS) infection can be a serious bacterial infection. It can make you feel groggy and tired. You need to follow Doctors instructions and take ALL of your antibiotics. You also need to take it easy, get rest, plenty of fluids and let your body heal it self. Some people stop taking their antibiotics when they feel better, but that is a MISTAKE. Take all meds as directed, take it as directed, rest, and do not resume activity until you are 100%. <<<ADR>>>
