    I would still get to the vet. Like has already been said, there are three causes of infection: Bacterial, viral, and fungal. The eucalyptus oil treatment (which I have never heard of so I can't recommend to do it or not, but I tend to stay away from stuff I haven't heard about before) may be clearing up his symptoms, but it isn't addressing the root of the problem. This means that you can think he's getting better when in reality the infection (or whatever is causing the RI) is getting worse. That sort of home-remedy type treatment can be a good way to have an RI get out of control without really noticing before it's too late.
