3 Responses to “Does putting cotton in your ears during an ear infection work?”

  1. Cotton serves the purpose of keeping ear medicine in and keeping cold air out. I don’t think it actually helps with pain.

    Well it works for me, but then my doctor gave me drops to put in, so the cotton acts as a barrier to keep the drops in.
    That and it keeps the air out.
    I don’t know, you can try it, might work for you too, made me feel better.

    Hope you feel better soon, take care
