The ABC Homeopathy Forum

Asthma/Wheezing

My daughter is 10 years old, she gets wheezing on and off specially in places of high humidity. This is happening since last two years.

She is very shy in public but very talkative at home. She fears all types of competitions. She is Fair(Indian origin and we stay in Bangalore).

She was under homeopathic medication but we don't see permanent cure. She was given Dulcamara, Pulsatila, Nux-v and some other medicines. Now I feel some new systematic approach is required. Please suggest. Do we need to give something to neutralize effect of old medications?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
THe remedies u mentioned seem to me more of a specific nature given for asthama in humid climate & this will not cure permenantly
tell me some thing about your daughters nature?
when she is wheezing how does she cope with it?
How does she behave at that time?

My Daughter is very shy in public, till the age of 8 she was a good swimmer but now because of wheezing she can't swim.

She is very sensitive, being elder daughter she is very responsible too. At times she gets irritated by younger daughter.

In school she hardly talks to anyone except with her close friends where she talks a lot. Her teachers tell that she knows but never volunteers to answer anything. She never wants to loose at anything that's why she avoids competitions, where one person gets compared with other one.

Now she can't takeup any athletic stuff, gets tired very fast and starts coughing which at times gets converted to wheezing after few hours. In her case Wheezing is mostly there along with coughing.

She gets wheezing when she is in Bangalore(High humid and temperate weather, temp around 24-32 degrees) else In Delhi she is all right(summer goes to 48, winters to 4)extreme temp but low humidity).

Please let me know if you need to know something else.

During wheezing, if you ask her how is she, she will tell she is fine. Only when condition is bad then she will tell that she is not feeling good. When wheezing starts we used to give her Nux-v 30c, which used to reduce or remove her wheezing but now it's not working. During wheezing, she become dull and finds difficulty in walking or doing anything. She complains of stomachache and headache.

This time Carb-v worked, she had problem for two days and then third day she was ok. Skipped school for one day excluding weekends. She is brave when it comes to handling big troubles but starts crying in smallest of external injury(like scratches). She handles big hurts with a lot of patience, like big hit in bycycle accident when she got stitches. She was ok and didn't cry after realizing that hurt is big and it's on her face. She cooperated with doctor completely.

During wheezing Hoew does she behave?
MY Guess acording to the remedy i am thinking
She wont make a issue of her suffering try and remain proper as much as possible
Just to avoid that fuss, sympathy from others.
If that is true let me know if not then tell how she behaves give me your veiw.

Agree with you. During wheezing if you ask, how is she? she will tell that she is fine. When wheezing is much worse then only she says that she is not feeling good. She hides all emotions of pain and suffering.

She is brave when it comes to handling big troubles but starts crying in smallest of external injury(like scratches), may be because of injury or may be because of some other reasons, like being troubled by younger one. She handles big hurts with a lot of patience, like big hit in bycycle accident when she got stitches. She was ok and didn't cry after realizing that hurt is big and it's on her face. She cooperated with doctor completely.

Thanks Dr. Yogesh, I wrote what you asked for. Further I wanted to add that her stomach is ok but she eats too less, normally her lunch comes back from school untouched.

I saw some small patches on her tongue. She can't byte from front teeth even if fruit or eatable is soft, doctors don't see any problem with teeth.

She is sensitive but very intelligent, many things she understand even without speaking. She is great at perceiving things, she is kind of always alert person who hears and perceive everything. She has good memory too, remembers many things and reminds me of many things which I was supposed to remember.

One more things which we I didn't discuss, she has wheezing problem since last two years and I am away from my wife and kids since that time because of work. I meet them once a month or when kids have summer or winter vacations.During vacations entire family stays together. At times me and wife fight too and now I am away so not sure how kids interpret this though we are happily married couple. This separation certainly has impacted in some way. Problem started when I was there with them but increased when I was away. When I am with them, she hardly gets problem.

SUN Pathak,
It seems she loves you very much.
Is it true that she will go out of the way just to please you
OR
She never wants you to get annoyed even slightly ( Example: She will do her homework even If she is wheezing).

Dr. Yogesh

She wants to show herself as good to everyone. She loves me and her mom equally. In case of homework, she will postpone it till the last minute. We also never put pressure on her about homework but if she is not done then while getting ready for school she becomes very nervous, almost like sick.

Generally she falls sick before exams though we never push her to study hard or keep great expectations. Normally she does well in everything including studies.

When she started Tennis then coach told us that she has good potential. Now if we see, she can't push herself, avoids stuff which are being monitored. When she started swimming then also coaches told that she has great potential and naturally she used to swim very fast(without much effort), much faster than grownups. But if there is a swimming race then she withdraws even before completing it, showing as if she is not interested. I know that she wants to win everything and even if slightest chances are there where she will loose, she withdraws or if she participates then becomes hopeless after loss. Coughing and other symptom starts.

wanted to add few more things...

she takes care of small kids very well. Plays and fights with her younger sister as other kids. Many small kids in our place move around her and like her. She is kind of Big sister for many small kids from neighborhood.

Lycopodium 30(dilution) As a single dose of 2-3 drops in 10-20 ml of plain water
Taken only once then repeated same way ONLY when the wheezing becomes worse

What to expect?
She may start coughing and expectorating large amounts
But wheezing will improve
She'll cough for 3-5 days then she'll improve overall

Hi Dr. Yogesh,

Just wanted to keep you updated on progress. Yesterday night we gave Lyco to my daughter(Muskan), she slept after taking medicine. Earlier to medication, she was not wheezy and didn't had any cough. After medication also everything is alright. I think we might see some changes in behavioral aspect in next few days. I will keep you posted.

Thanks and Regards
Sunil

Hi Dr. Yogesh,

As expected by you following things happened:

1. Gave Lyco-30C on 10th June, Muskan was all right till 11th June morning but evening slight cough and wheezing started. Didn't use any medication or Lyco.

2. 11th and 12th June, it was slight wheeze which was not impacting any day to day work. It used to increase a bit in evening/night but used to be ok in Day time.
3. 13th and 14th: Patterns were same as earlier but since she had school on 14th so we gave Lycho-30C single dose as suggested by you.

She went to school on 14th and at least now she is feeling better. We will observe in night and update you her progress.

During all these days she had been cheerful, sleeping and eating properly. She doesn't feel any restlessness because of wheeze. Wheeze was manageable without any medication. She used to sleep comfortably.

Please let me know if something else needs to be observed.

Regards
Sunil

Dr. Yogesh,

Please let me know the next step. I think I will have to wait for 2-3 weeks before next higher potency dose? Please confirm.

As of now everything looks good.

Further updates:-

Wheezing is not there and looks like she has started opening up a little in her class, this is very good sign. Since classes started just recently so teachers might not be able to provide much feedback. We will check feedback from school after few weeks.

In general everything looks good. Thanks a lot for all the help.

Regards
Sunil

Hi Dr. Yogesh,

Since yesterday night around 9 PM she started to get slight cough and wheezing. This time she is getting watery eyes. My wife gave another dose of Lyco-30. I told her not to give unless we get a go ahead but this dose was given. After this wheezing stopped but watery eyes is still a problem. She says that she is getting an itch in her eye.

overall we do see improvement in her behavior, she is much more open in sharing her problems. Please suggest, what should be our next step? Do we need to wait more or take some steps.

Thanks
Sunil

One more things... this time she has got cold too...
 
sun_pathak last decade
cold, cough and sneezing along with slight wheeze which subsided after the Lyco-30 dose I mentioned earlier but watery eyes is still and problem. Cough and cold is persisting.
 
sun_pathak last decade
Sun pathak,
IF cough & cold is there then dont worry the discharges coming out of this are the toxins the body wants to expel. let them be expelled Until she wheezes dont repeat the dose.
Let the nose flow ask her to throw it out once she is out of it she would improve much better with better immunity

Dr. Yogesh
 
yogeshrajurkar last decade
No discharge as such, now she is all right. No medication was required.
