Dr. T's Ear Infection Massage Method
Here's a massage technique you can use to encourage drainage of fluid from the middle ear. It works by massaging the Eustachian tube, a tube that connects the ear to the back of the throat.

First of all,, GREAT response to that idiot!! Second, thanks for the info! I was wondering about using this as part of the normal routine, if it would help with prevention.
A very simple technique but what is fantastic is that you took the time to show the patient/parent how to do this extra step for the relief of pain and also posted a video to help others.Your bed side manner is awesome. I think many other doctors could learn from this. Being a doctor should be about caring for people's health and well being, you have demonstrated this perfectly. Thank you
Almost forgot to mention that Dr. Tahir has have some of the GREATEST BEDSIDE MANNER I HAVE EVER SEEN! The man can put even the most frightened, sick, or anxious child at ease with his soft spoken tone!! This video is literally the greatest definition of how to deal with pediatric medicine.
I’m pretty tolerant when it comes to pain, but this ear infection has got to me bad the past couple days. This massage technique is helping with the discomfort so much, I can tell my ear feels a little less clogged, but definitely helping with pain and discomfort

I used to get absolutely horrible chronic ear infections as a child, they thought I would need tubes but thankfully I didn't but my balance is forever messed up because of it. Was never able to learn how to ride a bike. But, I wonder if these massages would have helped at all. I remember the pain being so bad that I would be in tears.
I just tried that on myself and it seems to help alleviate the pressure. I would love for this man to be my doctor...and I am 55.

I've been suffering from an ear infection for the past few weeks and finally saw my doctor for antibiotics, but THIS massage has relieved my pain so much faster and after a few seconds of massaging I can literally feel the fluid draining!! It's also eased my sinus pressure. Thank you!!
This along with popping my ears has just stopped me crying, woke up at 5am in agony and thank God I found these videos. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!
Literally tried so many videos over the past week of not being able to hear at all and this one has worked! Thank you!

Dr Tahir I have had 4 ear infections in the past year you have helped me so much. I also learnt to gently pull the ear down that is also very effective I will be using both techniques. Brilliant!!!!!
This proper family medicine, on the ground, with ordinary people. Loved it.
I know this is an older video but wow this works! It really helped me drain my ear during a swimmer’s ear infection- thank you!
thank you so much for this, ive been struggling with ear and tooth pain for awhile now this helped me so much
What a nice doctor to take time with patients.
I’m going to try this, because I’m dealing with an ear infection myself. And I’m aware this video is old but still thanks 🙏
I hope millions of children get relief from what their parents learn here.
THIS IS GREAT!!! and you are so lovely with the patient.
Thank You, that was very helpful, Your bedside manner and voice is very calming. Thanks Doctor! 😊
Just did this for fluid in my ears thanks so MUCH!!!
Trying this for myself right now...you can tell it's working! Dr. Tahir you are very impressive
As a current last year Medical School student I’ve learned a TON of information from a couple different Doctor Channels & those are Dr. Tahir & Dr. Paul. If I had to physically show how much knowledge I’ve learned from them over the past few years it would undoubtedly be 3 of the large textbooks that you see at Universities worldwide! If you’ve never seen any large textbook from a University a simple google search will be all you need.
wow. first person I've ever witnessed to be excited about an ear infection. I was crying!
Wow wow wow! The best video on the internet for ear blockage, after a pain I am literally feeling great after applying such techniques m. Thank you very much
I get pretty chronic congestion in right eustachian tube. I'm now doing this and can feel it seems to encourage drainage which is great! Better than any steroid sprays or nasal washes I've ever used. 👍
Holy sh!t !!! .. just doing the massage to my self helped allot with the pain and pressure sooo much !! And I think it’s bringing some of my hearing back .. took 3 mins also ..
My daughter had been suffering from earache for 20 days. And finally, your therapy did well from the first day, and 3 days later, it was completely gone! You're Incredible! Thank you!
Tried it yesterday, and today most of my horrible earache was gone. Thanks doc!
I try this and it gives me comfort from pain in my ear. Thank You God for this wonderful doctor.
Such a gentle doctor! 😊
This is amazing, haven't been able to sleep tonight because of ear infection pain so I'm literally just sitting here waiting for CVS to open for my prescription. Tried this technique, instant pain relief. (not total pain relief, but I was straight up groaning with pain before I watched this video)

Thank you Dr, just starting this method, on antibiotic spray again and it doesn't help much. Had earache for years before and Dr's said my ear was fine, the pain wasn't though, it took years to get better. Just got it again recently, it's a bit of relief to do this technique but my lower jaw hurts too as well as inside my ear, especially if I pull on it. I hope the massage helps make the pain go quicker.
Wow this is amazing it worked immediately
Thank you so much. This is life changing 🤩
Came across this by accident. Have been battling a sinus infection and now my left ear is clogged, swollen, and painful. Still on antibiotics. This gave me some relief from the pain. I was surprised when it let up enough that I can be some what comfortable. I've been taking Tylenol and Aleve and nothing was touching the pain.
he's so sweet and soothing i love this guy.
You're a life saver! We just went from screaming to whining. I'll take it!!! I used a heating pad for about 10 minutes first then I did the massage! A-frickin'-mazing!

I've been suffering from an ear infection and rather painful lymph node swelling for two days. Even using anti-inflammatory ear drops and painkillers, I could not sleep. I tried this last night and what a difference it makes! I could finally sleep! I used a microfiber washcloth because I have a large beard, and after a few passes, the process gets very smooth as skin oils build up on the cloth.

OH MY GOODNES DR. TAHIR! As a teacher of young kids (but with none of my own), I pride myself also on having a gentle and calm manner. HOWEVER, my own ears have been driving me crazy these past 2-3 years --- excess wax (need to have them cleaned out by my GP's nurse) and a kind of crackling when I chew and yawn. ANYWAY, I tried the above, and *everything* improved overnight - including the crackling (I can even hear a bit better, lol) - I like that the massage technique could also work as a kind of maintenance trick, without me having to put olive oil drops or any kind of drops into the ears (I go a bit deaf while the drops take hold, and as someone who needs ears for my job, and as someone who can't sleep while suffering temporary deafness from the drops, I must say I LOVE this technique - no need to put anything IN the ears). Thank you so much! Thank you so so much !
