I got the idea for this thread from a recent conversation with daughter sirrahsim. She and Tyler both have earaches. When my kids were little, I made salt socks to have them hold on their aching ears for pain relieving warmth. I would put plain salt or rocksalt into a pan and heat it up. Pour into a sock and tie the end in a knot. Later, I had my microwave and could easily warm the "salt sock". I recently read that using rice works even better and holds the heat. (regular rice that needs cooking and not instant rice) I tend to still go for these old non-medicine treatments.
Do you have any tried and true home remedies?Anything for earaches?
