Pain relief for children

Posting for traffic - but please move if not appropriate.

My nearly 11 year old has earache and is in so much pain she has been in tears all morning and I just don't know what to do.

What can I do to try and help relieve her pain? It seems so cruel to expect a child to tolerate levels of pain like this.

Extensive studies have been conducted regarding the effects of onion on inflammation and other conditions.

My sil lives in Germany and the pharmacist advised her to use the onion in warmed olive oil when her children were young. They don't hand out antibiotics like smarties over there.

Thanks for sharing this. I can imagine the pitchforks being raised by some!
