Earaches, Ear Infections & Onions Juice
By Roxy Cross, Contributor
As a mom, with a large family I was always interested in ways to get & keep my family healthy. This is one tip that worked every time & is used in the next generation of my family now. I learned this with my 3rd son, David who had a nasty nasal infection & earaches that would not go away or stay away with things his pediatrician recommended.
One day, I wondered if drinking milk was exacerbating his problem so I took him off dairy for a month & his nasal infection went away. My family went to only using skim milk in cooking & I found we all breathed better & no one had that white coating on their tongues any more.
The second thing I learned was how to stop pain in an earache instantly & it is so simple & most people have an onion in their kitchens so you don't have to buy anything.
Grate a little bit of onion into a little bowl. Press a teaspoon into the mush to get some juice in the spoon. Tilt the earache sufferers head to the side with the sore ear facing you & pour the onion juice from the spoon, into the ear. You may need to gently tug at the outer part of the ear to get the juice into the ear. Then use a cotton ball to plug it up, again gently.
Every time I have done this the squirming earache sufferer, relaxed & sighed from immediate pain relief. I also understand garlic oil & mullein oil work well, although I have never tried them.
The only down side is your baby smells like onion for a while, but I have never not had this work perfectly. Any residue juice seems to absorb into the cotton ball, so there is nothing to clean & no problems of anything left in the ear, if you only put juice in it.
So there ya go. Share this to save other parents sleepless nights while giving poor earache sufferers a break!
Being Prepared is Completely Up to YOU!
