Advice for earache
  • Pour a few drops of garlic juice in your ear at least two times a day. You can also put drops of hydrogen peroxide or juice of the leaves of holy basil in your ears.
  • If you have to go in the water for swimming, then put some mineral water in both the ears.


    Wear ear plugs to prevent water from getting inside.
  • With the help of a heating pad or a warm cotton cloth, heat your ear for 10-15 minutes twice a day.
  • Clean your ear regularly with the help of cotton buds.


  • Zinc cures ear infection and vitamin C boosts the immune system. Vitamin C reduces fever and inflammation due to ear infection. Include these in your diet and avoid dairy products like milk, butter or cheese till your earache subsides.
  • Wear a scarf when going out in the wind or put cotton balls in it.
  • If you have earache due to pressure changes, especially while landing or take off, then try chewing a gum. This will aid the ear muscles in sending air to the inner ear. You can also try blowing gently while holding your nose.
  • If the pain is due to head congestion, then it will be advisable to visit your physician.
