The Best Home Remedy for Ear Discomfort

Tis’ the season for lots of threats to our immune system. These times are so inconvenient. We must deal with these threats and at the same time try to take care of the “temple” God has blessed us with.

I tend to gravitate toward natural remedies and letting the body use it’s God given abilities to fight off issues. I make my own remedies and also buy natural (or homeopathic remedies) and use doTERRA Essential Oils to support our healing mechanisms. I thought I would share with you a natural remedy we use around here for occasional ear discomfort. It has always worked – even on my husband.

At the first sign of any ear discomfort I put together a concoction of garlic infused coconut oil to use in the ear canal. It is really easy to make. Let me share with you the recipe and how to make it.

Recipe for natural reduction with ear discomfort

You will need:

~1-2 tsp. of GOOD (preferably organic) coconut oil

~a sliver (like 1/8th tsp.) of chopped fresh garlic clove

~Small saute pan

~small portion of a cotton ball

Put coconut oil and garlic in pan on low heat. Saute it together until you smell the garlic. The oil will be heated through and the garlic will have released some of it’s juices. Do not burn the garlic or cook the garlic too much. Let the garlic, coconut oil cool off a bit until it is just slightly warm.

Have your child (or adult) lay on his or her side with hurting ear facing up. Take a small spoon (or dropper) with a few drops of the oil on it and place it directly into the child’s ear. Make sure the oil you use has NO garlic chunks in it. We don’t want that going directly into the ear canal. Have your child lay on their side for about 5 minutes to let the oil go in deep. After the five minutes put the cotton ball in the ear to block any oil that makes its way out. The best time to do this is right before bed BUT if your child’s discomfort is causing tears during the day go ahead and do it right away.

Every single time we have used this remedy is has soothed the occasional ear discomfort that happens. Usually the person with the problem wakes up the next morning and the discomfort has fully subsided.

Do you know about the benefits of garlic? It is a natural antibiotic, full of antioxidants, and can reduce your risk of cancer. Find out more at this link: Dr. Christopher
