Ear aches. why they occur... and how to fix them?
Question:
Answers:
Ear aches and ear infections occur when the normal drainage of the inner ear is blocked due to obstruction, usually from the surrounding muscles being contracted. When there is a blockage in the inner ear, fluid does not drain properly. Think of a local pond in the summer. THe water does not flow like a river or stream, and stagnant water breeds bacteria. Would you ever swim in a pond? I wouldn't!. When the bacteria build up, an infection occurs. If this is a regular occurance for you, I would see a chiropractor. We have a rediculous success rate with ear infections, because we remove the blockage when antibiotics only remove the infection. If this is not a regular thing for you, try this: take a washcloth and soak it in water, Put it in the microwave for 60 seconds. Lay on the side of your good ear, and put the hot washcloth over your afected ear until the washcloth goes cold. Repeat a couple times. The hot steam will draw out any bacteria from your ear, reducing the pain. If this doesn't work, go to your nearest health food store and get a couple ear candles. THis sounds a little wacky, but almost guarantees results. Good luck.
i had this about a month back i had terrible ear ache, and soon enough i had to go see my doctor it was that bad he told me i had an ear infection, and that my ear drum was being blocked by wax causing it to bend my ear drum inside, instead of it bending inwards it was pushing out.. my Gp arranged for me to have my ear syringed but they couldn't get to it so i had to use ear drops to soften the wax n then the hospital had to "Hoover" it out, i no how painful it can be id go and see a doctor just in case its more than an ear ache.
