subject: Ear Infection Treatment - Natural, Efficient, Cost Effective [print this page] Ear infection treatment can be suppressive (the more common kind) or can be holistic. Holistic treatment invariably works, not so much by dealing with the infection, but by raising your immune system, so you can heal yourself.
Any infection shows that your immune system is not in the best shape. Its struggling to do its job. Which is to protect you from getting any infection, any disease.
So, by choosing an holistic ear infection treatment, youre not just clearing upi the infection, youre also making yourself healthier all round, so you will get fewer infections, fewer health problems.
Suppressive ear infection treatments not only undermines your immune system, they often dont work. Ive had many children come to me with ear infections, who have been on constant antibiotics for months or even years. But to no avail.
The infection remains.
Things which tend to undermine your immune system are a diet of processed foods, artificial this, fast that. Junk food and soft drinks do so much harm.
Lack of sleep is probably the fastest way to undermine your immune system. Everyone needs their optimum amount. For some it may only be five hours. For others its more like eight.
The homeopathic treatment of any infections work by exciting your immune system, so it is now in a position to go about its business of healing you. One of the most common homeopathic medicines which deal effectively with ear infections is called Pulsatilla.
The unique symptom picture of Pulsatilla is that the ear pain is worse at night and its worse for any warmth (which is often expressed by cupping a hand over the affected ear).
Pulsatilla is probably the most effective ear infection remedy. One of them anyway.
