Ailment: Ear ache / infection / blockage

Remedy: Sesame oil

Sesame oil is widely used in Chinese and traditional medicine. It is warming and soothing. In ayurvedic medicine, it is the best calming oil for a disturbed vata dosha, or constitution.

Only use fresh, organic, cold pressed oil. Sesame oil is damaged by heating. The sesame oil that you buy in Asian grocery stores is toasted.

YES
Put 2-3 drops of body-temperature oil in the ear canal. You can use sesame, almond or olive oil. Lie on your side, and wait 10 minutes for it to absorb, then wipe off any excess. Do this three times per day for a few days. It will soften and lubricate the ear wax which should wash out, or to allow for removal.
