Ear is a very important part of our body. It not only works for hearing, but also plays a big role in maintaining the balance of the body. But in today’s time, ear related problems are increasing rapidly. Changing lifestyle, excessive use of headphones, not cleaning ears properly are the major reasons for this.
According to the report of the World Health Organization, about 5% of the world’s population suffers from some kind of hearing problem. People take help of allopathy for its treatment. But now the trend towards Ayurvedic solutions is also increasing. In this direction, Patanjali Ayurveda Limited has developed EarGrit Eardrops and EarGrit Gold Tablets.
Patanjali’s research claimed that both of these are effective in treating many problems ranging from ear infections to other problems. They have no side effects and they attack the bacteria in the ear. Apart from this, there have also been indications of reducing markers related to inflammation on cells. EarGrit Gold tablets were also tested on cells associated with middle ear infection, which helped in reducing inflammation.
In some experiments, the possibility of reducing oxidative stress has also been suggested. Research has shown that Patanjali’s ear drops and tablets are very effective in treating ear pain and infection.

pain in ears
what is the structure of the ear
External Ear
This is the part of the ear that is visible from outside.
Middle Ear
This is a small cavity in which the three smallest bones of the body are present. This part is connected to the throat through the Eustachian tube.
Internal Ear
This part has a snail-like structure called cochlea. The fluid present here converts sound waves into electrical signals and transmits them to the brain.
If there is infection or swelling in any of these three parts, the hearing ability may be affected.
How common is hearing problem in the world?
According to the report of the World Health Organization, it is feared that by the year 2050, 1 in every 10 people may have ear related problems. The matter of concern is that people take any ear problem lightly. Treatment is not done until the problem worsens. In some cases, even the ability to hear starts decreasing and then one has to go to the hospital.

What to do if you have difficulty hearing?
If a person is having trouble hearing, doctors usually recommend getting a pure tone audiometry test done. In this test the sound is checked in decibels. Normally a person can hear sounds ranging from 0 to 130 decibels, but if there is difficulty in hearing sounds more than 35 decibels, then it is considered to be reduced hearing ability. In this case, the doctor can either provide a machine or perform any surgery or other treatment as per his convenience.
