10 Home Remedies For Ear Infections
Remedy #10: Ginger
Ginger is a plant where the root is widely used in folk medicine and spice. While the evidence is inconsistent, there are some researches showing that it can help alleviate nausea and vomiting in pregnancy and chemotherapy. Generally safe, ginger may cause some side effects such as rash and heartburn.
In an ear infection, ginger may be beneficial as it can be used to relieve pain. The ginger can be minced or crushed and added to a tablespoon of olive oil. After it has been infused for 15 minutes, it can be sieved. Like garlic oil, ginger oil can be dropped into each affected ear 3 to 4 times a day. Consult with a doctor before use.
