home remedy for earache - #19767

Kashvi

I am dealing with this awful earache for a couple of days now, and honestly, it's driving me crazy. The pain is like a sharp stabbing feeling, especially when I chew or even when I'm just lying down. I tried some over-the-counter pain relievers, but they didn’t seem to help much, and I’m super hesitant to run to the doctor right away. I remember my grandma used to talk about some home remedy for earache she swore by—something with warm oil, but the details are a little fuzzy. I think she’d warm up olive oil and then put a few drops in the ear, but I'm not sure if that’s safe or actually works. Has anyone here had any luck using a home remedy for earache? I’m really curious if there’s a better home remedy for earache that people actually swear by?! Last night, I couldn't sleep because of this, and I’m just desperate to find something natural, something I can try at home rather than ending up in a clinic where they might just prescribe more meds. I've read about other remedies too, like warm compresses or even some herbal stuff, but I just want something that really helps. Any advice on a good home remedy for earache would be amazing. Thanks!
