    I thought this was going to be an orgasm question.

  • Last time I had that was when I was a child, which happened every winter. I remember taking some medicine that tasted like bananas. My mom also wanted to put some pee in my ear cause she claimed it would heal my ear infection (I don't know if she's crazy or it's true). I always went hiding downstaires when she would say that. But to answer your question, I really can't remember how long they lasted.

    Longer than a few days probably calls for a trip to the Dr's.

    I can't remember the last time I had an ear infection. Must have been half my life ago though. Do you really get them that often?

    if you're having repeating ones also consider chewing gum

    when i was a kid, i was getting them frequently and my parents were considering putting tubes in my ears, but there was only a half chance it'd work

    so the doc suggested i chew a lot of gum to work the fluid out. cos it wouldn't hurt and was cheaper... and if it worked then yay, and if it didn't work then we weren't out much .

    it worked

  • I got them as a child and I get them as an adult. For me, they usually last about 3-4 weeks.

    What can I do to this little animal? Can I prick it with needles? Can I piss in it's ears? Can I burn it with cigarettes?
    Can I turn it into a republican?
    That is what my neighbour asked me as I succeded into conving him to babysit my toddler,who also had an ear infection. Just kidding. I do not remember. Sometimes it lasted longer sometimes it lasted less. Anyway my mom tought it was my fault cause I used to touch everything,never washed my hands and tended to stick my fingers in my every hole. Including,yeah,my butthole.So she yelled on me and slapped my hands very often,but I always found a place to hide and do it.My cousin was cooler tho,he allowed me to stick my finger up his ass and I instantly knew everything about him.
