Don't
worry - otitis media is just the official fancy way of saying middle ear
infection. These kind of infections are
very common in young children and babies and you should definitely consult with
a doctor who may prescribe anti biotics, even though there is now a lot of
debate as to whether anti biotics actually speed up the passing of ear
infections or whether they pass by themselves.
I found a great natural remedy that works in preventing ear
infections in dogs. I use it for my dogs
and they have been ok for almost a year now.
THE FOLLOWING ALL NATURAL REMEDY
PREVENTS EAR INFECTIONS! This recipe is not meant to be used with Zymox. This
should only be used once the ears are completely healed.
Keep
in mind that it "will not" cure an existing ear infection.
Once
you get your dog's ears to a healthy state either by using Zymox like we
recommended or with the help of an antibiotic from your veterinarian, start
using the following remedy weekly to prevent future infections. This works by
raising the Ph level in the dogs ears.
Purchase
an eye dropper bottle and the following ingredients
from your local pharmacy.
2
Tablespoons of Boric Acid
4 ounces of Rubbing Alcohol
1 Tablespoon of Glycerine
Shake
the bottle before each use to thoroughly mix. Place a small eyedropper full
into each ear. Cup the dog's ear and massage gently. Allow the dog to shake his
head and gently blot dry any excess on the outside of the ear.
Do this weekly.
If ANY IRRITATION occurs - STOP using the recipe immediately!
