    Re: I have a severe ear infection

    Oh dear lord. Do I know the pain of this. I ruptured my ear drum years ago. Most painful thing ever. I wish you a swift recovery. Usually with antibiotics, they take maybe two days and you will be feeling much better.

      Sorry to hear this. Ear infections are horrible. It really does make a huge difference when the antibiotics kick in. In the mean time I'm wishing you strength to cope with the pain.

          Holding a sockful of warm salt against the ear gives a bit of pain relief too (no, I kid you not.) But make sure you take ALL your antibiotics as prescribed.
          Hope it clears soon. XX

            ...or a sock full of warm (uncooked) rice; microwave for thirty seconds, if not warm enough, add thirty more. A few drops of garlic juice or onion juice in your ear will help relieve the pain, too.

            And taking ALL of your antibiotic prescription cannot be stressed enough.

              My son gets ear infections 2-3 times a year, when he was littler, it was more frequent and he had to get tubes. I have to third the "take all your antibiotics as prescribed", although if the drops are for pain relief (rather than another antibiotic, which it might be depending on what kind of ear infection you have), they are usually less than helpful, especially if you have blistering in your ear canal. The only thing that eases that pain is time.

              Good luck!

                It might help you to endure the pain if you realize that the pain directs the healing. If you didn't feel it you wouldn't heal.
                The antibiotics are a real help for your healing process but they can also kill some or all of the bodies biotics so be sure to eat foods with biotics to aid digestion.

                I will send help for rapid healing.

                  I'm relatively certain that pain just tells you you have a problem... People on morphine still heal...

                  For pain relief - turn a blow dryer to low, and blow hot air into your ear.

                  Best wishes - I hate earaches.

                      Is he allergic to Penicillin? When I was a baby I had a bad earache and was given Penicillin. Come to find I became severely allergic. Apparently it's the speed of the medication that caused this (I have a quarter size perfect brown circle on my thigh at the injection site now). I heard a lot of people who are allergic to Penicillin are so because of them being exposed to it as a child (usually because of ear infection)

                          life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

                          Yoda: Dark Rendezvous

                          "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

                              He's not allergic, thankfully. He's only had to have oral antibiotics too...Phee had to have the shot though, she had strep that was resistant to two courses of antibiotics.
