To stop the pain of ear fungus, put a cup of salt in the microwave for 2 to 3 minutes. Use coarse salt and
dump it into a thick sock. The sock is to prevent burns. Apply the sock to the painful ear
and it draws fluid out of the ear, and improves circulation - which will help reduce
swelling and its pain.
Use an ionic hair dryer, on a low setting so that it will not burn the skin, to dry as much
moisture as possible inside the ear. Keeping the dryer moving will also help to keep the
ear from feeling too hot.
Combine half rubbing alcohol
and half vinegar (white vinegar or apple cider vinegar). Put one drop of the mixture in
each ear every few hours for a baby, 2 drops for children or adults, with a clean
medicine dropper
.
Tug gently on the earlobe to get the mixture into the ear canal. Then lay on your side so
any liquid left can drain out.
If you have ever had a punctured eardrum, ear surgery, or tubes in your ears, you can
not put liquid in your ears. For that, you can use an ionic hair dryer
(ionic works the fastest) on warm - not too hot to burn the skin - to dry out each ear -
and keep it far enough from the ear so it doesn't cause a burn. Then you can put the
vinegar and alcohol mixture on a Q-tips cotton swab
and gently wipe inside the ear. Do not push the Q-tip in deep or hard - be very gentle.
You may have to do this for several days, and do it one more day after you think the
ear fungus is cleared up.
