Here you can
find more home remedies for ear pain, especially my favorites the
homeopathic remedies for earache.
According
to my experiences homeopathic remedies are really powerful in
healing middle ear infection. You may combine
homeopathic remedies for earache
with locally used home remedies. In the treatment of outer ear
disorders local herbal/oil applications are more important than
homeopathy.
Choosing
the appropriate homeopathic medicine is not so easy. It needs proper
observation and some intuition. But it is not hopeless! I try to give
clear guidelines that make you easier to find the right ear pain remedy.

I suggested a well proved
combination of Belladonna and Ferrum-phosphoricum for the initial
stages of earache. This prescription is not individualized, anyone can
try it. If you want a more precise, a more fitting remedy, than make
some effort: observe the complaints carefully and find the most similar
remedy for your earache.

Take
one dose (2-3 pills) of the chosen remedy in potency C30. You must see
a marked positive effect after a single dose if the medicine is
correct. Repeat it when the
improvement stops or the symptoms get worse again. In case of
improvement
take the remedy for up to 3-4 days. If complaints persist,
consult a homeopath or a doctor.
