Default Ear ache temporary relief

I woke up with a painful ear ache last night and on into this morning. I have a slight cold too. I don't know if it is an infection or just from the cold. I remembered my great grandmother's remedy for ear aches that she used on all her kids and my grandmother used on her kids. I tried it this morning and it worked. My ear pain has stopped. I'll go to the Dr. in the morning but on Sunday, no place to go but the ER and I'll be there all day. My grandmother would crack open a peach pit and mash the kernel into a paste. Add a little warm oil or water and put a four or five drops in the ear. She never threw away a peach or apricot pit. Said it was valuable medicine. I always have saved a few of the pits thinking it couldn't hurt but never really used them until today. I'm a believer. It stopped the pain until a Dr can be seen to get it checked.
