About 4 years ago I have BORIC ACID POWDER gotten a strange ear infection, which would hurt slightly, and the skin in my ears would flake a bit, but no other symptoms. For the longest time I did not know what it was, meanwhile the infection got worst, and started to bother me a lot more. Doctors told me it is all in my imagination. Then I started to have sinus headaches, only I did not know that at the time, since I never before had a sinus infection or headache. When a strange orange mucus started coming out BORIC ACID POWDER of my nose, I was diagnosed with a sinus infection and given ten days of antibiotics. This cleared up the mucus but I still felt all of my old symptoms. I was told that it will go away. It did not. It started to get worst again. And again I have got antibiotics. Now for six weeks. I took the pills until my ears started to ring, but the symptoms did not go away. This repeated several times. I have visited an ENT three times. I have got a CAT scan, they did not find anything except a slightly deviated septum which they offered to correct surgically. I a have spent a lot of $$$ on doctor visits, with no results. Eventually my life became one big non stop sinus infection. The smell was the most bothersome. Sinus headaches are as bad as migraines.
Now after 4 years, and a lot of research, I know, from reading the works of reputable medical professionals, that a chronic sinus infection is fungal in 90% of the cases. This is why antibiotics never worked.
Since I could not convince my doctor to treat me for a fungal infection, even though at this time I had fungal infection all over my ears and even on my face I have decided to try boric acid.
I have used 1 teaspoon of boric acid for 250mL of water and added 1/4 teaspoon of KOSHER salt. I used a squizee bottle to wash my sinuses and ears with the solution. My infection was under control within a week. I washed my sinuses for two weeks twice a day, and for two weeks once a day. Now I am using it once a week.
You got to be careful not to swallow any of the liquid, and to drink a lot of water to remove any boric acid which gets in. But otherwise this has been a pain free and completely successful treatment. It will work for bacterial infections too, since boric acid is an all around antiseptic.
For me this stuff was a life saver. Good stuff. Tried and tested for medical use.
PS. I am definitely changing my doctor, 4 years without a proper diagnosis is way too much.
