Years ago I used to get frequent ear infections and my doctor recommended a 50 percent solution of alcohol and white vinegar. She also mentioned I could buy this same solution at the pharmacy premixed as a treatment for swimmers ear, at a much higher cost. I have been mixing my own and using it ever since at the first suggestion of an earache and haven’t had a true ear infection since.
The whole point of going to a doctor is that they are educated to help us with these types of problems. You want one that just flings a random expensive prescription at you? Fine, look for a doctor that does that. I’ll keep my doctor who understands that not all of us want to throw away money though.
People assume this is the first thing I’ve tried but this is over three appointments across multiple months in combo with several other medications (including antibiotic drops which didn’t seem to do anything). Besides sudafed for managing symptoms, it’s the first thing that has made a noticeable difference (in only three days!). I would have been better off with the homeopath they think I went to!
