A product called, "Wally's Ear Oil" is excellent. It combines mullein and garlic with olive oil. There is another herb...either calendula or goldenseal, echinecea maybe?...that acts as a natural antibiotic. Plug the ear with a cotton ball and away you go!

Warm up some garlic oil about the same temp as a baby bottle. Put the oil in your ear and massage your ear all the sinuses. drain the oil out in about 5 Then if you would like you can try an ear candle. Health food stores should have ear candles. Make sure you have a friend help you with the candle it take 2 people to do it safely.
My mom used to have us lay on a hot water bottle when we had ear aches as kids. I've also heard that lightly blowing warm air from a hair dryer can help. Those ideas are only for temperary relief, though. You really should go to a doctor for permanent relief.

Never put anything in your ear unless directed to by an MD. You should see a doctor.
You should go and see a doctor! What would happen if an infection occurs?
