Remedy for Ear Pain Relief
Open a walnut in half. Pour oil in the walnut shell, after you carefully remove the nut.
On a moderately heated hot plate place the walnut shell and let it boil for about two minutes. Remember that this is a process that requires precision because a small reckless move can result in oil spill. The idea is to use the oil along with the iodine secreted by the walnut shell.
The positive healing effects of the oil will be significantly improved by the iodine. Use a syringe to collect this oil and carefully pour some oil in the affected ear. The pain will be eliminated in a matter of minutes.
