ear infection

[Guest guest]

some one in the group had a dog with bad ears if all else fails try this

 

 

 

 

__._,INGREDIENTS:

 

16 Oz. bottle of Isopropyl Alcohol (standard 70%)

 

4 Tablespoons of Boric Acid Powder

 

16 Drops of Gentian Violet Solution 1% (see end of article for more

 

information)

 

Mix together in alcohol bottle and shake well.

 

You will need to shake solution every time you use it to disperse the Boric

 

Acid Powder.

 

Purchase a flexible plastic bottle with the opening at the top so that the

 

solution may be

 

gently squeezed out and dispense solution to affected ears. The ideal is a

 

hair-dye bottle

 

available at a pharmacy, Wal-Mart, Target, etc, or a beauty supply store.

 

TREATMENT PROCEDURE:

 

1) Evaluate condition of ears before treating and if very inflamed and sore:

 

do not attempt to pull hair or clean out ear at all. Just flush and then

 

wait until

 

inflammation has subsided, which will be about two days.

 

2) Warm the solution (as instructed above) and shake the bottle each time

 

before

 

using it for treatment,.

 

3) Flood the ear with solution (gently squirt bottle).

 

4) Massage gently to the count of 60, wipe with a tissue.

 

5) On first treatment: flood the ear twice, wipe with a tissue, and leave

 

alone without

 

massage.

 

6) The dog will shake out the excess, which can be wiped with a tissue.

 

Note: the Gentian Violet does stain fabrics, etc. so you may want to wear

 

gloves.
