I woke up to both of my ears aching intensely. It was an ear infection and the pain was unbearable. I had already heard of this natural remedy but didn't have a chance to try it until now. It WORKS!!! My ear infection was gone in three days. Below you will find the instructions! .-_-

Instructions:

1. Bring water in a small pot to a boil
2. While the water is warming up, slice the cloves of garlic in quarters
3. Add the garlic to the olive oil in the plastic tupperware
4. Seal the tupperware and place in the small pot of boiling water. (You could warm it up in the microwave but I wanted to avoid any kind of radiation) Let it sit for about 5 minutes or until the garlic is soft.
5. Remove the tupperware and be careful not to burn yourself. Let it cool until it's room temperature.
6. Strain the olive oil into the CLEAN glass jar

7. Using the plastic spoon, scoop only a little bit and place three drops in each ear. Repeat twice a day until symptoms subside. The mixture will last for about a week.
