Gently warm some olive oil - warm, NOT hot - and lie on your side with the sore ear up.

If you have an eyedropper, it's easier to do - but you want to get some of that warm oil in your ear.

Polysporin drops are excellent! They are not warm, but really help. I suggest the oil in case you don't have anyone to get the Polysporin for you.

I remember the polysporin when I had a DOUBLE ear infection as a teenager! YOW. I really do feel for you...I hope the antibiotics kick in soon!
