Get mullen drops in the health food store. In the meantime, put a cotton ball in your ear.

I have homeopathic verbascum oil - is it the same thing?

they say don't use it on burst eardrum - how do I know if it burst or not?

just got over a double ear infection. I will echo other posters, please see a doctor asap. you may need antibiotics...I was given oral antibiotics as well as a one time antibiotic ointment that doc inserted. at follow up a week later he gave me drops for one ear to take care of a bit of residual infection

If you don't know for sure if it's infected but just irritated or just mildly infected you can put some warmed (10 sec in microwave) olive oil in your ear. Works wonders. My PA recommended it years ago, has saved me several trips to the doctor.

btw I put ahalf onion ontop of my ear. quite soon after I felt the infection draining down my throat.
still in pain but think its getting better. had also taken some homeopathy before that a few times so together may have worked.

thanks for the support I was really scared.
