Re: Lugol's for Ear Problems?

I have the crud right now and have been experiencing some pressure in my right ear. Kind of would call it an earache in the past but I think it is mostly due to sinus pressure. Last year I started painting the back and front of my ear. I noticed that it felt like my eye was reacting along with my ear draining. I did not have a cold at the time. Since I now have the crud and have made it two years without any cold or illness I decided to paint (5% Lugols) the area in front of the ear again. I paint about a one inch strip from top to bottom of my ears and completely down my neck. I sleep better at night and there is a lot of drainage. Tonight I did not paint because my hubby is sick with the crud and I did not want to wake him. The painting is much more effective then the peroxide I put in the ear. I'm glad you brought this up.
