Ear Infections

I recently had a neighbor come to my door in serious pain from an ear infection. I was very excited to loan her my mullein oil and my garlic oil. It is amazing how it can work within a 1/2 hour to relieve pain and begin healing the ear.

Garlic Oil

6-8 garlic cloves crushed

olive oil

Place the garlic in a glass jar. I use a small jelly canning jar. Fill the jar to just cover the garlic and shake the jar a couple times a day. After about two days I squeeze the oil out with a metal tea strainer and a spoon and discard the garlic. I then put it into dropper bottle. To use in the ear I put the bottle in my pocket to warm it to body temperature. I keep the oil in the ear with a cotton ball. Garlic oil is an antibacterial and will fight the infection.

Mullein Oil

1/4 cup mullein flowers

olive oil

Place the mullein flowers in a glass jar and just cover the flowers with olive oil. Shake the jar a couple times a day for 2-3 days. Strain the oil and discard the flowers. Store in a dropper bottle. Keep it in place with a cotton ball. The mullein relieves the pain in the ear.
