If you are like millions of people throughout the world you yourself have experienced an earache.
The natural question you may ask is, "What to do for an earache?".
Well I have found out what is causing your earaches and how you can remedy them.
Earaches are caused by a buildup of fluid in the Eustachian tubes.
The reason your ear begins to hurt is because this fluid becomes infected the longer it is in there.
Once it is infected it will begin to build up behind the eardrum and will inevitably begin to put pressure on the eardrum.
The pressure leads to pain that can be very mild to incredibly excruciating.
Other earaches are caused by a constant irritation of the eardrum.
This can be caused by constant use of cotton swabs or cue tips to clear out ear wax.
The repetitive nature of such a task often irritates the eardrum and it can become inflamed and begin to hurt.
If this is what you believe is the cause then I suggest you stop using cotton swabs or cue tips in such a manner.
Finally, some earaches are caused by a buildup of earwax in your ear.
This buildup can cause irritation and that irritation can cause the eardrum to become inflamed.
This can be prevented by preventative cleaning.
One way to know if earwax is the cause of your pain is if sounds coming from that ear are somewhat muffled.
If this is the case I recommend cleaning your ears out for a few nights to see if the problem goes away.
Some earaches are caused by a change in altitude.
When you travel from a low altitude to a high altitude or a high altitude to a low altitude your ears may "pop".
This is a painful experience for any who have felt it and the only way to truly remedy this is to chew some gum or suck on some hard candy.
It will pass fairly quickly if you do one of those tasks.
