Right now I have mono and I have a really bad ear infection in my right ear. It hurts so bad, every time I cough, swallow, etc. I get this sharp pain on the inside of my right ear. What can I use to help with the pain?

For fast relief, turn to your kitchen for remedy. Warm some olive oil (room temp ok) - it's very soothing in the ear canal. Apply with your finger. To help with healing, sip and gargle (both) with a solution of apple cider vinegar (not white vinegar) and water. "ACV" has good bacteria, or probiotics, to combat your infection.
Apply a heating pad or hot water bottle to your painful area; the heat aids your circulation to help you heal. Stay well hydrated with water and important electrolytes! Eat nutriously to fight off infection; vitamin A foods fight viral infections. If you are up to it, research nutrition to fight EBV (Epstein-Barr virus); maybe Dr. Axe or Dr. Oz have something for you. Feel better.
Get garlic oil caps. Bite end and squirt in ear. Plug with cotton or tp ball. Been doing this 20 years or so and works better than rx stuff.
