Don't do what I did. I treated a mild middle ear infection in my husband
with mullein/olive oil. No garlic. I should have used 2-3 drops but thought
"if some is good, more is better" and used about 6 drops twice daily. After
a period of about 2 weeks, he began losing hearing in one ear.
He went to the doctor who then sent him to a specialist. It seems the
gunk I was putting in there CAUSED a fungal infection. It seems I was
putting in so much that it had nowhere to drain. It just sat in his ear and
grew stuff.
I don't know if adding garlic to the equation would solve this, but my
advice is to just use 2-3 drops if you use it. It needs somewhere to go once
it's in there for awhile.
