Ear Infection

[Guest guest]

-Im sorry but ear candleing does NOT work...in fact it is very

dangerous....if you are interested in what i have to say then you can

look it up in the archives ive said my piece on this topic plenty of

times before...or you can request that i leave the information again

or feel free to contact me off list....im more than happy to provide

information on this topic....BTW im an audiologist....i have seen the

after-effects of ear candling gone wrong...If you leave an ear

infection alone, chances are that it will take care of itself. Let

the body take care of itself.........thats what it was designed to do.

take a few drops of echinacea, dilute in a tsp of juice and use one of

those needle looking things from the pharmacy to shoot it down her

throat

Well my baby has been feverish and I went to a naturopath. We think she has

an ear infection. She prescribed some garlic and mulein ear drops. I have

no idea if they are working. How did you figure out that your child had an

ear infection and how do you know when it is gone?

How oftem did you use the oil? It is hard for me to get my baby to take the

echenacea. Because she is so little (8 mos), It has to be dilluted in water

and she rarely drinks it all. Do you know of a diffrent brand or method?

Actually, I think that probably more than a few HAVE taken notice. I for one

am postponing ear candling the baby until I have researched thoroughly. As

soon as I get time, I will be heading to the archives to see some of your

posts.

Also, one of our Group members e-mailed me directly to tell me about a

program she had seen on ear candling. The ear candler after candling

someone's ears then cut and opened the cone to show the " stuff " that was in

the cone. She said that the " stuff " was what had been drawn from the ear.

So then the show's investigator lights a cone and allows it to burn in an

empty glass. Supposedly when the investigator cut and opened the cone - the

same " stuff " was there. Very interesting.

I guess that no one bothers to read my warnings on ear

Hey,girl. I read them all the first time around and decided it was too

risky for me...ped cone or not. And I call it earaches, not ear

" infection " (although my husband insists you can

tell...whatever...terminology not that big of a deal as we long as we agree

on course of action...as long as he agrees with me!)

HI All,

I have just been to the archives to have a read about the candles

() . I had a mother come to me recently to ask weather I

would reccomend ear candling for her daughter . I said no , while I

would not like to dismiss the effectiveness totally, I just don't

think there are enough people around who really know how to

administer them safely . As I use predominately homeopathic tx with

my children I recommened this instead .Also the use of antibiotics

must reduced to improve overall health etc

Just as another note...for those of you compelled to do the candleing

thing....obviously something that ill never understand....i remember

coming across information awhile back that recommended doing it

sitting up so that the candles are parallel to the ground KWIM? That

way they cant drip into or onto the ear. BTW...i myself dont support

the notion of antibiotics for ear infections.....i dont want anyone

thinking that i do because i certainly dont.

You are correct. No one should use any treatment of any kind without knowing

all aspects of who, when, what, why, where, and how.

Double check everything no matter who tells you. Isn't that what this list

is all about??

I agree, you can have severe earaches without an infection. I have suffered

from this all my life. Doctor's have never been able to tell my parents, me

or my husband why they hurt so bad.

ENT told me to peroxide the children's ears. All of mine make lots of ear

wax and one has constant fungal infections in her ear. She can tell from

time she was 3yo that it was starting to grow.

You and Larry are both in my prayers. Friday doesn't give that ear

much time to clear up, but it can be done. Keep thinking positive

thoughts!

Didnt someone mention rubbing evening primrose oil inthe ears for infections.

I thought I read that here that this treatment worked well.

Chiropractor fixed my baby's ear pain. It's VERY gentle and he charges half

of what he charges for adults. Many people recommend that ALL new babies see

a chiropractor as soon as possible because of all the baby endures during the

birth.

I have heard that breastmilk in the ear is excellent. also on dr mercolas

site there is an article that recommends putting hydrogen peroxide in the ear

for colds, flu etc. it does sting and hiss and i definitely could not bring

myself to put it in my ear or my baby's ear, as much as i am sure it does

work!!!!! LOL

But here is the article. if anyone does it and finds it not too awful and

also effective, let me know!!!

THe link i gave about peroxide was not the one i originally read. i cant find

it anywhere, but i wouldnt use it wiht a small baby anyway!! so it was just a

bit of info for general.

i would try the breastmilk! good luck.

Does anybody have a good remedy for ear infection?

Hi ,

I learned the lymphatic flush in Dr A Schmidt's book Healing Childhood

Ear Infections. It is very easy to do and very soothing and comforting to the

ear. I can describe it more if you like. It can be done with or without using

an essential oil but I go for the synergystic effect of using an oil such as

Roman Chamomille( safe for infants and anti-infectious).

I'd say its pretty rare for an unvaxed, breastfed baby to get an ear

infection.

I, again, encourage her to look up symptoms she can figure out in

homeopathy book or see a homeopath if he is very ill

it hought so too. very rare, which is why i mentioned the c-section

antibiotics? was she born by c-section?

You work with what you know - we will start this week in the class.

You write down how his mood is, what time of day better or worse, what

makes better or worse, what is the drainage like that he coughs up.

You don't treat an 'ear infection' - you find the remedy that matches the

symptoms he has that you can figure out.
