Traditional Uses of Mullein Oil
For Earaches
-
- Traditional Use: Mullein oil has been used traditionally as a remedy for earaches. The typical application involves warming the oil slightly and placing a few drops in the affected ear. This folk remedy is passed down through generations, but scientific evidence supporting its effectiveness is limited.
- Traditional Application: Warm the mullein oil slightly and use a clean dropper to apply 1-2 drops in the affected ear. Lie on your side with the treated ear facing up for 5-10 minutes.
- Frequency: 2-3 times a day until symptoms improve. See your healthcare professional for any middle ear or painful ear symptoms.

- Consult a Professional: Before using mullein oil, especially in cases involving children, pregnancy, or underlying health conditions, consult with a healthcare provider.
- Avoid Internal Use: Unless prescribed by a healthcare professional, mullein oil should not be used internally.
