(OP) User ID: 85148703 United States 01/29/2023 05:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Amoxicillin is good for the ear. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77698391 And Antihistamines to clear up the fluid/inflammation. Generic Allegra. Disclaimer : also see a doctor. I've poured H2O2 into my ear twice, with no real effect. I guess the infection is (internal) beyond the ear canal. it also just occurred to me to take a benedryl, so I got out a professional strength 50mg benedryl that i'm going to take. If nothing else, it will knock me the fuck out so I won't be in pain. Thanks for suggesting amox.. I think I have some in the refrigerator. I'll go get some, but I think I'll wait a few hours to take it. This is not normal for me. I just wonder if they are spraying us with something and I wanted to see how widespread this might be. I don't have the time or the crayons to explain this to you. Slake Blake |

(OP) User ID: 85148703 United States 01/29/2023 05:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have twice, but it doesn't really bubble like it's doing something. The bottle isn't that old, but I've ordered a couple of new bottles from Walmart for next delivery. I like it better when I get 30% H2O2 and I dilute it to my own needs, but I don't want to invest in a gallon right now. I don't have the time or the crayons to explain this to you. Slake Blake |

Thanks np, it really works. i let it sit for a long time before draining and doing the other ear and when it was really hurting, did multiple times a day until my ear pain eased up. i think the directions say the same, but honestly cannot recall the directions. it's really incredible. wish i had known about it sooner. hope you feel better soon. ear pain can be so bad and it really is debilitating as it's hard to do anything/focus when you have it. i tried hydrogen peroxide once, decades ago, and it hurt like hell, maybe my infection was really bad. be careful if you use it. feel better soon. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 19876247 United States 01/29/2023 05:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I had these severe ear infections for FIVE YEARS after the tDAP vaccine Get an “elephant irrigation bottle” from Amazon Fill with warm not hot water and 2 capfuls of peroxide Rinse out the debris …1-2 times a day and then DRY YOUR EAR CANAL w q-tip Get orange flexible ribbed ear plugs - NEVER shower without them! Do not EVER get water in your ears unless flushing on purpose I would lay on the pillow and HEAR Glug, Glug, Glug as watery fluids moved around The outside of my ear was crusty and had water pockets too m I developed a scaly eczema style build up in and around my ears I lost almost all hearing for a week in one ear I had ringing so LOUD that the TV at 100 volume was barely able t distinguish the dialogue The elephant with peroxide worked better than all the antibiotics and ear drops they gave me Saw specialists and got temporary relief but not long term hearing or pain relief The tDAP was given to me approx 7-10 days before the worst ear infection I could imagine I hadn’t had an ear infection in 20 years before that 3% peroxide - the brown bottle in all pharmacy aisles and Walmart for $2 is the best medicine And the earplugs from Dr Neil Med ear kit and keeping ears DRY has saved me and my hearing |

User ID: 84004355 United States 01/29/2023 05:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Seriously. My ears ache and the tinnitus is louder than ever. It mostly affects me when I lie down (for bed at night). It will get so loud and pulsating/throbbing that I can't sleep. I'll get up after trying to sleep for a couple hours so that I can sit up and let it subside. It's not bad if I'm upright, but it just goes crazy if I lay down. Ginseng |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 82004610 Netherlands 01/29/2023 06:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | How about taping a piece of garlic to the outside of my ear and leave it on overnight? idk. i'm pretty sure i kept the garlic oil in my ear sround 30 minutes though, bc it felt so soothing. you can warm it up by placing the bottle in a mug of warm water before dropping the garlic oil into your ear. cotton balls or tissue work great for when it's time to drain. honestoy, i think the oral antibiotics i took never truly cleared up my infections, just beat them back. the garlic oil worked so well, i've not had another infection since. the second time was not long after my initial treatment, if i had kept using the drops for a couple of days longer during the first treament the garlic oil would have killed whatever was in there thoroughly. |
