Aconite: to be taken at the first sign of a cold after exposure to dry, cold wind. Useful only during the onset of a cold . Symptoms are frequent sneezing, burning throat, thirst and restlessness at night.
Allium cepa: sneezing accompanied by streaming eyes and nos. Nasale discharge makes the nose and upper lip sore. Patient feels better in open air. Coughing hurts the larynx.
Antimonium tartaricum: you can hear the rattling of mucus in the chest. The patient, if a child or an elderly person, has difficulty spitting up mucus. Is weak and drowsy, with a sweaty, pale face; often gasps for breath. Feels better upon sitting up, worse on lying down and worse in the evening.
Arsenicum: A thin, watery nasal discharge irritates the nostrils and upper lip. The keynote is burning pains that are relieved by heat. The throat is relieved by hot drinks. Patients feels better indoors even though nose is stopped up. Head colds tend to go down into the chest. There may be dry cough; everything feels worse after midnight.
Belladonna: at the sudden onset of cold, patient has a flushed face, skin that feels hot and dry to the touch. Fever often strikes quickly, along with restlessness and sensitivity to light. The sore throat is often bright red, worse on the right side. Patient may suffer from a short, dry, tickling cough that is worse at night. Infrequent thirst is another symptom.
Bryonia:The Bryonia patient wants to be left alone and lying perfectly still, “growling” when disturbed. Symptoms are worse with the slightest movement. Is thirsty for large amounts of cold drinks. The cold tends to travel into the chest. The cough is hard and dry, often accompanied by chest pains and a bursting headache, and is aggravated if the patient steps into a warm room. Lips and mouth are dry, but the patient may have watery discharge and a stuffy nose.
Dulcamara: This is the reverse of Gelsemium, the cold coming on when the weather or temperature suddenly changes from hot to cold. There is a profuse watery discharge from nose and eyes, and the nose runs more in a warm room than a cold one.
Euphrasia: Contrary to Allium cepa, a profuse watery nasal discharge from the nose and eyes makes the eyes but not the nose sore. The discharge is worse at night, when the patient is lying down. Conversely, the cough is worse by day, but better when the patient is lying down.
Gelsemium: Warm, moist weather often brings on the slow onset of this cold. The patient feels sluggish, chilly and has a dull headache with a heavy feeling in the eyes and limbs. Wants to be left alone. There is much sneezing and watery discharge that irritates the nose, but there is seldom any thirst.
Natrum muriaticum: Begins with sneezing and nasal discharge that is either watery or of the consistency of egg white, and irritates the nose.
Homeopathy only wants to stimulate the patient’s own reactive powers so he’ll
basically be the one curing himself. Anything more than the minimal dose
(regular medicine uses material dose) will, pro term, increase his suffering with
a violent aggravation of symptoms.
In case of chronic colds, consider a consultation - your constitutional remedy will strengthen your system and reduce the frequency and length of colds. 08-858-9518
