Due to high environmental risk, the ear can grow infections, irritation, inflammation, and severe pain. It is so painful to the environment that pollution, water, and even some animals can affect painful hearing problems.The ear produces wax, which serves to protect it from small objects and animals that may enter. It also creates hairs that protect it. When dust, dirt, and water grow unpreventably in the ear, they lead to traumatic pain.

Below, we recommend some care and precautions to keep healthy hearing.

• Don’t exaggerate ear cleaning. Note that the purpose of earwax is precisely to prevent objects and animals from entering and causing infection.
• Never place any type of object in your ears.
• Don’t graze too hard.
• Do not apply unknown substances.
• If you go to the pool, wash your ears thoroughly. Make sure there’s no standing water in them that could cause infection.
• If it hurts, you can try the following home remedy.
• It is suggested:

• Take some basil leaves.
• Boil them in two tablespoons of water.
• Crush the leaves.
• Sprinkle a cotton ball with this juice.
• Put the cotton ball in your ear and you will notice the improvement.
• But don’t forget to meet a doctor if the problem persists.
• The human body naturally creates mucus to lubricate and protect the throat and sinuses. However, when this production becomes excessive, it can imply the presence of a persistent infection, acid reflux, or inflammation. Here are the main reasons of this mucus buildup, as well as natural solutions to fix it.
• 1. Acid refluxThe most popular yet often undiagnosed cause of excess mucus is acid reflux. This happens when the valve at the top of the stomach doesn’t close properly, allowing stomach acid to back up into the esophagus and into the throat. This acid reflux may be followed by heartburn, but in many cases, only the symptoms connected to the mucus appear, a condition called silent reflux or gastrolaryngeal reflux disease (GLR).

• Natural solution:

  Blend 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water and drink this preparation twice a day before meals. This supports to close the stomach valve and weaken reflux. If after a week the mucus decreases, this implies that acid reflux was probably the cause.

  2. Antacid medications

  

  Many people, especially over the age of 40, are expected antacid medications or proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) to treat their reflux. However, these medications only relieve stomach acid, making the problem worse in the long run.

  Natural solution:

  Apply apple cider vinegar as mentioned above, and consider taking 5 to 10 capsules of betaine hydrochloride before meals to enhance digestion and boost the stomach valve.

• 3. Postnasal drip

  Another popular cause of excess mucus is postnasal drip, where mucus drains from the sinuses into the back of the throat. This can be resulted by a sinus infection caused by viruses, bacteria, fungi, or yeast. The result is a chronic sinus infection that persists, accompanied by coughing, a feeling of a lump in the throat, or a constant urge to clear your throat.
