Here's some unsound medical advice.
I received it from a friend who isn't a doctor (which is where I usually turn for medical advice, but only after exhausting my other resource for health and well-being from index to glossary: the Time/Life A - Z Medical Encyclopedia) so you may want to take out a life insurance policy before you try it.
With so much serious authority in his tone, he must've been telling the truth, he told me the following:
read more »when i have ear problems, i drink a lot of water. a. lot. of. water. the constant swallowing sometimes gets the muscles to "pop" and in addition, the water keeps you hydrated and helps flush out infections.
although the idea of you hanging upside down from the ceiling fan has given me the most massive case of giggles. :)
Should you really be resorting to 'unsound' medical practices when you have an ear infection?
Okay. Bad time to be making such a joke. But hear me out...
Sorry. Being serious now. I really, deafinitely... that is, I hear that ...
I think I'll shut up now.
you may have a wax build up in your ear if you aren't sure what's causing the infection. if that's the case a doctor (a real one, usually an ear, nose and throat specialist) can go in and clean it out for you.
okay, first off, I gotta ask.... what kind of ceiling fan do you have and how was it installed.
I tried the very same thing and ended up ripping the damn thing from the ceiling. I layed motionless on the ground trying to sort out the stars and tweety birds.... When I got my head sorted I realized I did something that I don't think too many have done before... literally.
After three tries I finally got my foot out of my mouth. The taste of tough actin' tinactin isn't that great... way too minty!
So I have to ask you Red, for my own safety, where can I get myself a super duper ceiling fan? Not just for my safety, but I think you owe it to all your readers... don't ya think? :o)
Hope your feeling better,
