ear pain remedy - #17214

Vikram

I am dealing with this annoying ear pain that just won’t go away! It started last week when I had a really bad cold, and I figured it was just the usual congestion. But, wow, it kinda got worse. Now it’s this weird throbbing sensation, and I can't even lie down comfortably. I thought maybe it was just some fluid buildup or something from the cold, right? But yesterday, I tried using a warm compress which didn’t really help at all. Now I’m freaking out a bit because I keep searching for ear pain remedy online, but all I see are things like "see a doctor" or "use over-the-counter painkillers." I don’t wanna run to the doctor if I can find a simple ear pain remedy at home! Could it be possible that there’s a natural ear pain remedy I can try? Like, does anyone know if stuff like garlic oil works or is that just a myth? I’m kinda desperate here and just wanna feel normal. Has anybody else had this and found an ear pain remedy that actually worked? Should I just ride this out, or is there something I should be doing? Any tips would be super appreciated!
