Natural Earache Remedies: More on raw onion

» biogardener - More on raw onion

Raw onion is easy to use if you use a really juicy thick-fleshed one. I had occasion to use it recently because I had a boil in my ear which was itching. No way was I going to take antibiotics for such a minor problem.

I took a little piece of Spanish onion, scored the soft side to release the juice, rolled it up and placed it in my ear. I did this two night in a row, and the boil totally disappeared.

Just one problem. I did not get all the onion out. The little remaining piece dried up inside. I had to take it out with tweasers. So make sure you get all the onion out before any part of it dries.
