What homeopathic remedies would you use for a baby with an ear infection?
By
Question: He’s a 3 month old who has a suspected ear infection. I have a homeopathic first aid kit containing – pulsatilla, belladonna, aconite, chamomile and arnica. I would imagine pulsatilla and belladonna would both help, but what about the others? Should I dissolve the pillules in water together to give him?
I don’t want to disturb the local homeopath at night to ask, so I thought I’d check here first.

listerine on a q-tip works best. Unless the infection is in the inner ear.

I hate to sound like a broken record, but has baby seen a doctor yet?
That should be your first port of call.

A good upper cervical chiropractor is the only thing that works long term in my experience.

Typically, any sort of first aid kits will have general adult doses of pills. Before giving an adult dose to an infant, you’ll want to ask your homeopath… it’ll be worth the wait of a few hours to give your child the right thing.
In the mean time, some aromatic or liquid chamomile should help to calm him down and help him sleep. Good luck!

colloidal silver.
a few drops every few hours in the ear and a few drops under the tongue.
