Eucalyptus for Popping Ears

When my son was 3, we went to Australia for a year. On the way, he had quite a bit of pain because his ears would not pop as we were landing. We asked the flight attendant if she could give us something. She brought us back a sachet soaked in eucalyptus oil. All he had to do was smell it and his ears popped!! We were thrilled to say the least. When my daughter took her 3 week old son (yes, 3 weeks!) to Canada for a visit. I suggested she take some eucalyptus oil with her just in case Joey had pain. I found some oil for her and she soaked a few cotton balls with it and put it in a baggy. Sure enough, he seemed uncomfortable landing, so she just put it under his nose. No more crying!!!Technorati Tags: , , ,
