Guest guest Posted October 22, 2000 Report Share Posted October 22, 2000 To reduce extra ear wax, use ear candles--beeswax impregnated linen gauze formed into candle-shaped tubes--have worked wonders for myself and my sons with extraordinary tendencies to collect wax. Look in your local health food store for them and instructions--not as hard as it may seem at first.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2006 Report Share Posted March 10, 2006 Earache First AidFill a hot water bottle with warm water, cover it with a cloth, and apply it to the ear. Herbal Treatments Garlic & Mullein in olive oil. Or Make a decoction of 1/4 tsp Goldenseal powder and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a hard boil and then remove from heat. Cover and let stand for 10 minutes. Strain through a coffee filter. Let it cool down to body temperature, (the ear is very sensitive to heat and cold). Fill a dropper with the decoction and drop a few drops on the inside of your arm to check the temperature. With the head tilted sideways, put the dropperful of Goldenseal in the ear and hold it there for about a minute. Repeat as needed. Suzi What is a weed?
