Sore throat home remedies 

Sore throats that lead to ear blockage are the ones that are typically accompanied by a severe infection. The first thing you must do for this is to go to a doctor and get yourself treated with a proper course of antibiotics. This will help to kill your infection at once.


If you do not want to do this, then you can also adopt some simple home remedies, but you must know that this would take a considerably long time to heal. So remember that if your problems persist after a period of a week or more, your best bet is to consult a doctor otherwise you may be in great danger of having some kind of permanent ear damage.

The best therapy for your problem is to take steam inhalations with a few drops of eucalyptus oil added to the water.


Try to cover your head with a towel while doing this, so that your ears also get a dose of steam treatment. This will help them to unclog better and faster. Make a cocktail of half a teaspoon each of ginger juice, garlic juice and honey and try to take this as often as you can during the day. The garlic can contribute toward healing your infections. You should also have a glass of hot milk to which a teaspoon of turmeric powder has been added. This will help to fight your infection from within.
