Earache Remedy #3: Ice Pack

We often turn to ice when we have an injury. An ice pack can be very helpful in reducing swelling because the cold causes the blood vessels to contract, and this helps reduce the amount of swelling. The good news doesn’t stop there, either, as an ice pack can also be used to help reduce pain.

To create a make-shift ice-pack, simply take some ice and wrap it in fabric such as a towel. Hold this on the area for around twenty minutes and the cold should hopefully numb the area, reducing pain. You can also buy icepacks that help you soothe pain without getting you wet.
