Hi all - a few years ago I bought a nice ear oil for minor infections from Motherlove and really liked it. They no longer make it, however, and I need something desperately. I'm really looking for an oil to put a few drops in the ear of. What do you recommend? I haven't ever made an oil or tincture so I'm hoping to find something to purchase. Any help you can give would be appreciated. Thanks!
Hmmm. For swimmer's ear-- ten parts olive oil to one part tea tree oil, if it is bad. If not, two parts alcohol for swimmer's ear to one part white vinegar.
The first mixture tends to get stuck in the ear so just pull on the lobe to get it out.
No guarantees but alternating the above every three hours or so worked for me where prescription ear drops didn't. Try to leave the drops in there about thirty seconds or so. BL

When I was little and I had ear ache my mother used to warm some almond oil and put a little bit into my ear and plug it with a plug of cotton wool. Anth

beings its summer...perhaps swimmer's ear..ie fungus???
It's mostly swimmer's ear type of stuff. The oil I used to use was to finish clearing up a bad fungal infection I got - I intially went to the doc and got a prescription for pills which really did a number on my digestive system. Not wanting to do the pills again when the infection came back, I tried out this ear oil from a place where I bought other items and it worked great, but they don't make it anymore. I got a bottle of Similasan from Walgreen's but it's just not quite the same.
