<p>I have the worst ear infection in my left ear. The pain is so excruciating that I sometimes feel like I'm losing my mind. I've already visited the doctor and gotten medication, but does anyone here have any tips as to what else I can do to alleviate this horrible pain.</p>
<ol>
<li>Ice.</li>
<li>Boric acid -- it helps, but I'm not sure you can find any in the US.</li>
</ol>
<p>thanks a lot. I'll surely try the ice.</p>
<p>I don't know how old you are, but when I was drinking still, I used to get tanked, that got rid of a toothache once.</p>

<p>No ear. No infection.</p>
<p>The pot makes the hurting stop.</p>
<p>Just take the antibiotics and it will go away really soon...</p>
<p>(I used to have chronic ear infections)</p>
<p>i had those too, it was awful. If you go see a doctor they can describe antibiotics. (It took me a few prescriptions to find one that worked well)</p>
