Answer:
Tell you what you can do. Take a sock fill it with table salt to make the size of a small ball. Put it into a pot and heat it up. When hot take out and put another sock over top of it. This is to be done when you are ready to go to bed. You sleep with the infected ear on the hot sock, the combination of the heat and salt will draw the poison out of the ear, keep doing this until you have no more drainage.
My mother used to blow smoke from her cigarettes in my ear. We're talking 40 years ago, but it worked at the time.
Why can't you get medicine? Call your MD or go to an Urgent Care facility.
There are drops you can try (see th pharmacist at your local store for suggestions) but if you are having major pain you need to be sen by someone.
roll a newspaper into like a funnel. then burn the out side part of it while having the other side in ur ear. lol sounds weird but works ; )
get a garlic capsule and poke a hole in it. put a small amout of the liquid on a cotton ball and put it in your ear. that should help you!! the garlic will kill any infection that u may have in there.
Warmed olive oil is sometimes helpful, as long as the eardrum is intact. If you're not sure, I really think that moist warmth is the absolute best. If you have any disposable diapers, fill one with really warm water and use that as a pack. It absorbs well, holds in wetness so you don't get soaked, and retains heat well. If you don't have a diaper, use a wet washcloth and keep putting it in the microwave.
try warming a bit of olive oil and putting that in the ear. You can also try a heated smooth stone against your ear.
It's not a cure and it only helps a bit, but I plug the ear with cotton wool.
Yes, go to your local health retailer and buy some Hopi Ear Candles, they are expensive bout Aus$12. a pair. You'll love it.
