1,5 year old kid coughing

Hello,
I need some advice about a cough my kid has for 3 months now. It started as a dry cough at night and it changed to wet cough in about a week or two maybe. She coughs few times a day (7 times approx.)for about 5 minutes. It doesn't seem to be any different at day or at night. Her regular doctor said that her lungs sounds fine and her cough is bronchitis-like (whatever that means). Otherwise she is OK, in a good mood, nothing else seems to me wrong. She's also teething. She didn't have any fever. She wakes up every night at 2-3 AM (even when not coughing), calls for mummy, when I put her back down to bed, she sleeps till morning.
We've been giving her Pulsatilla 12c and Kali Bich 30c for a month now, 3 times daily, but it doesn't seem to help a lot. It's not worse, but not even so much better.
What would be your recommendation.
Thank you very much.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Hi,

Please give her Alumen 6X, 1 drop mixed in one teaspoonful of mineral water, 2 times a day, for 2 days.

Report after 2 days.

Many prayers for your daughter.

Thank you.
I've checked every single online store in Europe to get the Alumen 6x and I can't get it. The lowest potency here is 6c. Is that OK?
I would like to order remedy and get it real fast, but if I order from US it will take a lifetime to get it.
Do you post remedies from Europe to?
Thank you again.

And can you please tell me is Alumen the same as Aluminium-kalium-sulfuricum?

'Alumen the same as Aluminium-kalium-sulfuricum?'
No

'The lowest potency here is 6c. Is that OK? '
Ok, please go for it.

I finally got the remedy yesterday. We started giving her the remedy in the evening, so I will report tomorrow. Thank you

Good!

More prayers for your daughter.

I think she is a bit better. Her cough during the day was not that often yesterday, but at night she was still coughing.
I forgot to tell, that I could only get globules not dilution, and I've been giving her those. Is it better to make a wet dose and try with that?
Today she's at day-care so I don't know yet how is she.
Will report.
Thank you for you prayers and time :)

My daughters caugh is getting worse-more often. Could that be the reaction on new remedy?
I will go and buy ars alb today.
Thanks

Ok, let's stop the remedy. Please describe the cough in detail including any chest symptoms, if any?
 
nawazkhan last decade
The cough is a little bit dryer, than it was before. It doesn't seem to be any other difference. Chest simptoms-nothing special. Just like before. Cough is just more often at day and night.
Thank you for your help.

'Cough is just more often at day and night. '
When is worse during the day?

At night what time is the bad time? Does the cough come suddenly?

Please list all remedies at home right now?
 
nawazkhan last decade
It's worse during the night. Every night cough comes suddenly at 2AM and 5AM. It's not the kind of cough that she couldn't catch her breath. She coughs every minute once or twice.
At home I don't have a lot:
Belladonna c6 tabl.
Allium cepa d6 tabl
Alumen c6 glob
aconite c30
euphrasia c30
kali bicd c30
echinacea c12
pilsatilla pratensis c12
hepar sulph. c30 and
matricaria recutita c12 (but I don't use it now, even though she's teething)
I can get remedies that are on the list here every day in potencies C6 and C12 : http://www.lekarnaljubljana.si/si/farmacevti-za-vas/homeopat....
All others I have to order from abroad and it takes a few days to get them.
Thank you

I forgot to tell: yesterday evening she got her first dose of arsenic. alb. C12, and in the morning second dose. Still waiting to see the reaction.
 
spela.sunflower last decade
How was her sleep last night? Any cough after mid night?

'first dose of arsenic. alb. C12'
How was the dose prepared?

Where are you from?
 
nawazkhan last decade
Yes, cough began at 2AM, stopped at 3AM, then again at 5AM till 5.20.
I give her teaspoon of honey (with propolis) to calm her cough.

2 globules dissolved in teaspoon of mineral water.

I'm from Slovenia.
 
spela.sunflower last decade
Thanks, please be patient.
 
nawazkhan last decade
Last night her cough begun at 8PM to 9.15PM, then again at 0.30AM to 1.30 AM. Later she coughed but it wasn't so bad.

Also her nose is runny, with clear to light yellow discharge, but constant through the day.

Thank you
 
spela.sunflower last decade
Did you give her 'arsenic. alb. C12' last night?

How many doses have been given?
 
nawazkhan last decade
Yes tomorrow evening and today in the morning. 4 doses till now.
But now her nose discharge is worse- thicker and more yellow than yesterday.
 
spela.sunflower last decade
Would you recommend Allium cepa maybe?
 
spela.sunflower last decade
Please try to get Ars Alb. 200C asap.
 
nawazkhan last decade
'Would you recommend Allium cepa maybe?'
Yes

More prayers for the kid.
