Home Cure for Fluid in Ear

Along with the medications prescribed by your specialist try the following simple home remedies to treat your inflamed ear and loss of hearing power:

  • With regular use of the prescribed medications the fluid in your ear will often clear on its own, however if it doesn't then don't try anything to drain it by yourself without taking some help from a specialist.
  • With fluid if there is accompanied pain try applying warm compress on the outer side of the ear for relief. Avoid pricking the ear with sharp tools like toothpicks, pens or hair pins as it would increase the chances of infection.



  • If there is no perforation in the eat pour a drop of tea tree oil in it, as the antibacterial properties in it would help get rid of the infection.
    If you have hearing problem then stay or sit away from noisy places. Learn to lip read, be a good reader when the opposite person is talking.


    To avoid further hearing losses avoid damaging noise or sitting next to loud speakers.
  • Put a drop of warm margosa oil in the ear, this is a good remedy for hearing loss.
If the hearing loss is gets worst or if the fluid still persists then consult a specialist for instant medical assistance.
