Earaches

---

http://www.herbsfirst.com/ailmentsdescriptions/Earachespg.html

 

Definition: Pain or aching in the ear. [HHH p.64]

 

Symptoms: This can be a painful condition for all ages. Little

babies rubbing and pulling on their ears are not able to tell you,

orally, what is wrong. Children and adults also suffer from the same

condition. [HHH p.64]

 

Cause: Sometimes earaches are caused by infection, cold in the head,

a blow to the side of the head, and many other causes. [HHH p.64]

 

Herbal Aids

 

Garlic: Earache, inflammation of the middle ear, ear disease: Pack a

small clove of garlic in gauze and place into the external ear

passage; or drop 4-5 drops of Oil of Garlic into the ear channel,

cover with flannel, and keep warm. [sNH p.100]

 

Mullein: Use warm mullein oil, 2-3 drops in the ear 2-3 times daily.

Apple cider vinegar is also a healing agent. [sNH p.317]

 

Mullein: Use three to six drops of mullein oil in both ears several

times each day. Insert it upon retiring for the night, and, as

before, plug the ears with cotton. Place a fomentation over the ears

all night of three parts mullein and one part lobelia. [HHH p.64]

 

Hops: Apply a flannel bag of hops, and moist heat over the affected

area. [sNH p.396]

 

Treat Both Ears: The simple, old-fashioned aids are sometimes very

fast in giving relief. Always treat both ears, even if only one

aches. [HHH p.64]

 

Onion: Lightly bake a large onion, cut it in half and while warm

(not hot enough to irritate the area), bind one half of the onion

over each ear. Bandage in place and hold bandage on with a nightcap,

white skullcap, etc., and leave on all night. [HHH p.64]

 

Camomile: Use a fomentation over both ears of three parts of

camomile and one part of lobelia. Take two ounces orally (a

wineglass full) each two waking hours. Leave the fomentation on the

ears all night. (Cover fomentation with plastic or oiled silk,

etc.). [HHH p.64]

 

B & B Tincture: Dr. Christopher's Nervous System Formula with Black

Cohosh: When this procedure is used as explained here, it can be

helpful in promoting an improvement of poor equilibrium, failure of

hearing, aiding the motor nerve, etc. With an eye dropper insert

into each ear at night four to six drops of oil of garlic and four

to six drops of the following herb tincture: blue cohosh, black

cohosh, blue vervain, skullcap, and lobelia (B & B), plugging ears

overnight with cotton, six days a week, four to six months, or as

needed. On the seventh day, flush ears with a small ear syringe

using warm apple cider vinegar and distilled water half and half.

[EWH p.200]

 

Flaxseed Meal and Blue Vervain: Made into a poultice with flaxseed

meal, using a strong infusion of Blue Vervain instead of plain hot

water, it relieves ... earache and ear abscess as well. [NL 5-10]

 

 

Testimonials

 

1. Garlic: When my little girl had an earache I put a piece of fresh

garlic in her ear and it was better by morning. The previous

alternative was to go to the doctor and pay a lot of money for

penicillin. [NL 4-4]

 

2. Anti Plague: Dr. Christopher's Immune System Support Formula: The

anti-plague formula contains Black Walnut. When Dr. Christopher was

lecturing in Snowflake Arizona, he was describing the need for

people to be prepared for the coming plagues in the last days.

 

Someone raised his hand and asked what should be used for the

plague. Dr. Christopher, though he was a most noted herbalist,

didn't have a ready answer! After a short prayer, he gave the anti-

plague formula to the audience and then just forgot about it. Not

long after, people began asking him for the formula again, as those

at the Snowflake lecture had made it up and had, had marvelous

results; they had cleared up flu, earache, eruptive diseases, car-

sickness, and had even saved the life of a poisoned puppy! This anti-

plague remedy is a most valuable combination. [NL 5-7]
