Experiencing ear pain? It may signal an ear infection, also known as otitis. Looking for relief without jumping straight to antibiotics?
A time-tested grandmother's remedy offers natural, effective pain relief: magnesium chloride diluted in water. No prescription required. Watch how:

1. At the first signs of pain, dissolve 20 g of magnesium chloride in 1 liter of water.
2. Drink one glass of the solution.
3. Repeat after three hours.
4. The next day, take a glass every six hours.
5. Two days later, reduce to one glass every 12 hours.
6. Continue with one glass daily for a few more days.
This approach can significantly ease ear infection symptoms without antibiotics – simple, quick, and natural.
For added relief, apply a few drops of the diluted solution directly into the affected ear.
It's especially handy for nighttime pain or when medical services are unavailable, like weekends or holidays.
This remedy may also help with related symptoms such as colds or allergic rhinitis.
Ear infections are common, particularly after swimming in pools or the sea.
Magnesium chloride works well for mild cases, often providing relief in just days. However, if pain worsens or persists, consult a doctor immediately.
For children: Adjust doses carefully – always under medical guidance.
- Ages 2: 1/2 glass
- Age 3: 1/4 glass
- Age 5+: Adult dose
Slight variations in dosing are generally safe, though mild diarrhea may occur. For babies, use 1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon, but consult a pediatrician first.
Repeated infections can affect hearing, so professional evaluation is essential.
Note: High in salt, so unsuitable for low-sodium diets. Always discuss with your doctor before starting.
