Mullein Oil

Olive Oil, Mullein, 

• Mullein oil is a popular folk remedy for ear pain and ear infections.
• Some studies on children with ear infections have found that herbal ear drops containing mullein, garlic, and other botanicals were as effective as anesthetic drops at reducing pain.
• Safety note: You should not put any oil in your ear without first consulting a doctor to ensure your eardrum is intact. 

• Mullein has anti-inflammatory and emollient properties, and its oil may be used topically to soothe and moisturize irritated skin.
• It has been traditionally applied to treat conditions like eczema, rashes, burns, and minor wounds.
• One study on new mothers found that a mullein cream helped enhance the healing of episiotomy wounds. 

• The anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving compounds in mullein may help with mild muscle or joint pain when applied topically. 

• While mullein oil is sometimes rubbed on the chest for coughs, this is a traditional use and less common than other preparations.
• Other mullein products, such as teas and tinctures, are more commonly used to address respiratory issues.
