What are home remedies for an ear infection for an adult?

Answer by  ImaDawon (51)

The best remedy for an ear infection for an adult is to take a clove of garlic and put it in the infected ear. Secure it with a band-aid over your ear. I saw this on the Dr. Oz show and he said it really does work because of the unique antiseptic qualities that garlic has.

Most ear infections will clear up within 48 hours without antibiotics. Use natural Similsan ear drops for pain relief. Drink hot or cold liquids, whichever is more comforting.
