how can I comfort and help my daughter who has earache?


My 3 year old little girl has been screaming in pain from earache. She can't sleep and is really miserable. We've given her some calpol and put a warm towel on her ear to help soothe it. The chemist said that was all we could do for her. Any other homeopathic suggestions?

Warm olive oil alleviates pain, just a couple drops is all that's needed. Then plug the ear loosely with a cotton ball. Or make a paste out of onion powder and put it on the outside of the ear for pain.  (+ info)

Could my sons earache be caused by the growing of his six year old molar?


My son is 7 years old and is just now cutting his first six year old molar. The left top molar has broke the gum. He does not complain of pain to the tooth or gums, but he is having a earache on that side, going on 4 days now. There is no infection and no fever. I thought maybe it was swimmers ear but i gave him the ear drops for that and he has no relief. The earache doesn't keep him from playing around and it doesn't bring him to tears, just an ache.
----------

Yes, your son's earache could be caused by his cutting a new molar in that area. You may also see other symptoms like when he was teething as a baby - drooling (extra saliva), or enlarged lymph nodes on that side.  (+ info)

What are the remedies for earache?


The earache occurred every time I'm in a taxi. Gulping usually triggers my earache, but only while inside a moving transport vehicle. I knew stuffs about infections and I don't think my earache was associated with those. This is just the simple yet painful earache we commonly experience while inside a plane on its landing, the type of earache that was associated usually with cold. But what are the remedies for this type of earache?
----------

I suggest you go to your local drugstore and buy earache relievers OTC. But, you can also try this. I've used this on family members. This is a natural remedy and it actually works! If you are home already, or when you go home, buy an onion, smash it up, and drop the liquid from the onion into your ear. This should help! Best!  (+ info)
