What can i do to take care of a ear infection with out medicine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
OTC: Talking about a middle ear infection, the ear connects with the throat through the eustachian tube. If you could open up the tube, the ear infection might improve. Try a decongestant, saline nasal sprays and popping your ears like you are on an airplane.
