Let us have a look at the various home remedies for ear infections:
1. One effective adult ear infection home remedy is to squeeze some onion juice and soak it in a cotton ball. Insert this onion juice soaked cotton ball in the ear. It aids in combating the ear infection.
2. You can also use a few drops of garlic oil in the ear every night while sleeping.
3. The mullein flower oil is also useful as an effective adult ear infection home remedy.
When this oil is soaked in a little cotton and put in the ear,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it relieves the pain caused due to infection.
4. Lemon balm is a good adult ear infection remedy. This is mainly due to its antiseptic,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], anti-viral properties that fight the infection. Apply lemon balm in the ear gently.
5. You can also mix some finely chopped garlic or ginger with honey and consume the mixture either with warm water or tea for better results.
6. A few drops of warm olive or castor oil put in the infected ear serves as another adult ear infection remedy.
The ear should later be covered with a ear plug or cotton plug. After putting this oil,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], sleep on the other side so that the oil seeps in rather than trickle back out of the ear.
7. Holy basil leaves are also an excellent adult ear infection home remedy. The juice of holy basil leaves,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], when put in the ears serves as a cleanser and disinfectant to fight bacteria and viruses present inside.
Though adults are not affected as frequently as children,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it is important for adults to be aware of how adult ear infection can affect them. Adult ear infection is caused by infection in the Eustachian tube,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], near the inner ear. The Eustachian tube connects the inner ear to the nasal passages in order to drain fluid from the ears and equalize pressure between outside and inside of the body,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but when fluid or mucous builds up in the Eustachian tube,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it is an easy target for infection.
Rarely,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], an adult ear infection can be due to an obstruction from a tumor. This possibility should be suspected especially when the infections are recurrent,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], when large lymph nodes are palpated in the patients neck area,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and when effusions last for several weeks.
There are many situations in which adult ear infection can surface. A cold can cause fluid build up and infection in the Eustachian tube. Post nasal drip may also contribute. An adult does not necessarily need to be sick to get adult ear infection. Often,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the infection is caused by mucous being blown into the Eustachian tubes by blowing the nose or failing to clean the liquid out of the ear with a cotton swab after showering.
In one of every four cases in children,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], ear infection is not caused by a bacterial infection but by a viral infection. Viruses often cause adult ear infection as well. Viral infections are much more difficult to eliminate.

Causes of adult ear infection
People are prone to this illness especially when he or she has colds. Blowing the nose forcefully,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], for instance,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], may push mucus into the eustachian tubes. A postnasal drip may also trigger an infection,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and so can small amounts of liquid left in the ear after a shower.
