Excellent Relief From Frequent Colds & Cough In 3 Months of Homeopathic Treatment At Life Force
Mrs. S.L. (PIN: 39852) visited Life Force Homeopathy on 9th April 2019 along with her husband. Her husband was priorly our patient undergoing treatment for another disease condition. Seeing his improvement, he wanted Mrs. S. L. to start homeopathic treatment for her condition as well.
Mrs. S. L. suffered from frequent episodes of colds along with cough. She was suffering from these episodes every alternate month lasting for 1-2 weeks. She complained of severe running nose, sneezing, and cough with expectoration (mucus from the throat in saliva). She was suffering from congestive sensation in her chest occasionally. She also had a fever during these episodes.
She had this health issue since childhood, but it had worsened since 2017. She had a history of Pneumonia in 2017. She had a family history and genetic tendency towards the same. Her father suffered from Sinusitis, whereas her mother had Allergic rhinitis.
She was taking conventional medications during her episodes, but it gave her relief only temporarily. The episodes of frequent colds would again affect her after a month or two. Also, she had become highly irritated due to the same. She had also tried a local homeopathic treatment for 2-3 months with no relief.
Her condition used to worsen at night and in the early morning. She felt better by inhaling steam and hot water fomentation on the chest. Her complaints also used to get triggered due to the exposure to dusty places and exposure to the dust.
Her appetite was normal. Her bowel movements were fine. Her diet was mixed. She had a normal menstrual history.
Her detailed case history with an emphasis on her current complaints, past medical history, family medical history, physical generals, and aspects of the psychological sphere were taken into consideration. The entire case was assessed and analyzed by Dr. Shah and accordingly, the research-based medicines for the condition were prescribed to the patient.
Follow-Ups:
In the first follow-up, after one and a half months of taking the medicines, on 20th May 2019, her condition was 50% better. Her relief from the intensity was a lot better as compared to earlier. The frequency of the episodes had also reduced. She even had ice-cream and was not that easily affected by cold and cough as before. She had a mild runny nose the next day after having ice-cream. She had no intense episodes like before. She experienced just 2 moderate episodes that lasted for 3-4 days.
In her second follow-up on 26th June 2019, her overall condition had improved by around 60%. Her intensity of the complaints had reduced considerably. She experienced just one mild episode of colds after the change in the weather, from summer to rainy, which lasted for 3-4 days. Other than that, she experienced no episodes in the last month. Her congestion in the chest had also reduced considerably. Her nights are more comfortable now, as she does not need to get up and sit due to congestion.
The patient is happy with her progress. Currently, the patient is continuing the treatment to get the condition treated from the root level. Her medicines are targeted towards boosting her immunity so that she can be relieved of this condition completely.
