Karnapoorna
The Ayurvedic Remedies for Chronic Ear Infections, Hearing Impairment, and Tinnitus
Karnapoorna, also known as ear oiling, is an Ayurvedic procedure where warm medicated oils are gently poured into the ears. This therapy aims to maintain ear health, improve hearing, and alleviate various ear-related issues. It helps to lubricate the ear canal, remove impurities, and balance the doshas, particularly Vata, which can accumulate in the ears and cause discomfort or hearing problems.

After the therapy, the patient should avoid getting water into the ears and refrain from exposure to cold or windy environments to prevent infections.
