Why Homoeopathy for Allergies and Coughs?

Do you suffer from?

Runny nose, sneezing, coughing, Red swollen eyes , Sinusitis, Chesty cough.

Homoeopathy is just right for you.

Be sure to start it as a preventative before the hay fever season and use a proven system that actually works.

I have used homoeopathy to treat Nirav (name changed), an 8 year old boy who came to me. Nirav had a stubborn winter cough that started with a runny nose, followed by a lingering cough. The GP advised cough syrup and nasal spray. He was diagnosed with having asthma.

I examined Nirav homoeopathically. I considered the diagnosis of asthma as mentioned by the GP and was convinced that his symptoms were respiratory related. Nirav had a cough that started first thing in the morning after waking and lasted till breakfast. He was having trouble breathing. He complained that if he ran around and did a lot of exercise, he had shortness of breath.

I also learnt that Nirav was having difficulties in coping with friends in the yard at school and also had a short attention span. The cough wakes him at night with perspiration which is unusual for winter. His perspiration is so profuse that he needs to change his shirt. I prescribed a set of homoeopathic remedies, tried and tested. Nirav got better after his school holiday break. I asked the parents to continue with the medicines for a month. Nirav did not have to take inhalers, cough syrups or antibiotics. Recommended remediation is to give a homoeopathic constitutional on and off during winter period to build immunity.

I prescribed homoeopathic medicines on the basis of Nirav’s diagnosis, systemic and symptomatic picture. I took into consideration the symptoms that he presented, bearing in mind that a deeper acting medicine needed to be prescribed based on his constitution which would act as his preventative medicine.

I have had similar success with many of my clients who have reduced their dose of Zyrtec and antihistamines having kept up with homoeopathic medicines which may be prescribed on the basis of symptoms. Homoeopathy is useful in the remediation of symptoms after the diagnosis of hay fever, allergies to skin; gut and respiratory system have been identified. Please refer to https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov (2007) on how homoeopathic remedies are at par with conventional medicines in the remediation of respiratory allergies.
