Get Rid of Those Chronic Ear Infections with Homeopathy!

First, you will want to get rid of obstacles to getting well. Remove dairy from diet because that can make a huge difference in decreasing mucous production. Maybe there are some other offending foods, so get rid of those too but, I find with the right homeopathic remedy one can do pretty darn good without getting into really severe diet restrictions.

Ear infections are only the tip of the iceberg and in order to deal really effectively with that iceberg you need to see a professional classical homeopath. They can find a remedy that will restore natural harmony for the whole body - ears included!

But, lets say it is the weekend and in the wee hours of the night and you recognize the old ear ache scenario developing. Your child wakes with crying, aggitation, restlessness, pulling his ear, his face is red and you can feel radiant heat coming off of him but his hands and feet may remain cool. Fever is present yet he is not thirsty. If you see this picture have a look at the homeopathic remedy Belladonna 30c.

If the symptoms come on after the child has been chilled or if the weather has changed from hot to cold you could be looking at a different remedy. Especially, if the onset is sudden and around midnight and the child is acting anxious, has fever, is sweating and has thirst. There may even be a croupy dry cough. Aconitum 30c would, most likely, work better than Belladonna.

Chamomilla 30c is good for cases where the child is screaming with pain and is restless, irritable and oversensitive. Children who respond well to Chamomilla are hard to please. They want to be carried and then when you carry them they want to be put down. They want a drink of water and you give it to them and they throw the cup. You get the picture!

The above remedies have been found to be very helpful with acute ear infections. But, to strengthen the body so as to decrease the tendency towards ear infections you need to contact a homeopath. They can pinpoint the best remedy to bring balance and harmony to your health. So be observant of the symptom picture. The body has so many answers within itself!

So, how many doses should be given?

Only one. Wait and see the response. If there is calming and sleep then good! Don't give any more. The remedy has done it's job. If it works for while then wears off then repeat it. The doses will start to space out as improvement sets in.

What if it does not work?

Then it was not the right remedy. Contact a homeopath for a proper work up.

Where can I find homeopathic remedies to buy?

At the health food store or on-line. Make sure you keep them away from strong odors, your cell phone, microwave, tv, etc. as that can ruin them.

And lastly, use your common sense. Use this information safely and appropriately. Serious illness should never be treated without seeking expert advice.
