Enlarged tonsils and adenoids

My 3 year-old son is suffering from enlarged tonsils and adenoids. In December 2013 he came down with tonsillitis and since then has enlarged tonsils which are affected every time he catches a cold or cough virus. He breathes a lot with his mouth open and when sleeping you can see his chest sink in.

He has been seen by an ENT consultant who ruled out sleep apnoea after tests, but I still think he sometimes does find it difficult in breathing in his sleep when he comes down with viruses and his tonsils have flared up.

A Homeopathic doctor prescribed him with cal caf and tonsilitron for 6 months. It did help a little but when he had a flu virus his tonsils flared up again. We are currently giving him a combination of Sambucus nigra 30ch and Baryta carbonica 30ch, twice a day, alternately, every four hours.

His tonsils are still enlarged and breathing problems remain. Can you please suggest anything to help us with our son.

Thank you for your response. In reply to your questions, my son is slim, very active, he is very selective with his food. He only eats weetabix for breakfast, rice and curry for dinner, and snacks are usually chocolate,biscuits, Bombay mix and some fruits. He drinks milk.
He sweats a lot on his head especially when he is sleeping.
Only health issues in family are high blood pressure, diabetes, and hay fever.
He doesn't have any problems with his bowels. Usually goes at least once a day, sometimes twice.

if you decide to follow my treatment you will have to stop all other medicine.

please give him sulphur 30 one dose preferably in the morning. update 3 days after giving medicine.

Can you please let us know what you mean by 1 dose? And also does he take it only 1 day or 3 days?
 
HussainMN 8 years ago
one dose means if the medicine is in globules, 4 or 5 globules: if it is liquid 2 or 3 drops dissolved in half a cup of water. you are to give only one dose for one day.

Thank you for your advice. We have given our child one dose of Sulphur 30 on Sunday.
It seems his heavy breathing slightly improved, but tonsil glands are still same
 
HussainMN 8 years ago
it will take some time for the tonsils to reduce. give him another dose on Friday.
 
telescope 8 years ago
We will follow your advice for Friday and let you know 3 days later again.
I had a question regarding his eating, are there any restrictions, any food he should avoid or maybe eat more of? Also is it ok for him to have ice cream?
 
HussainMN 8 years ago
for the time being there is no restrictions on food. he can have ice cream.

Sorry we didn't get back to you yesterday, but we did give him a second dose on Friday, but no noticeable changes this time.

Please advise further.

please give him one dose tuberculinum 200 in the same way as you gave sulphur. update after 3 days.
 
telescope 8 years ago
Update after tuberculinum 200, is again nothing noticeable, but we can say that there has been an improvement in his breathing since we began treatment with you.
 
HussainMN 8 years ago
let the tuberculinum work without interruption. cure of adenoids will take some time.

Hi
It has been over two weeks since our last correspondence.

He has had a cold for last couple of days. Do we need to do anything further? How will we know the medicine is working?

Thank you for your time.
 
HussainMN 8 years ago
if there is improvement in breathing difficulty the medicine is still working.

Hi, it has been a long time since our last contact. First, I would like to thank you for your advice as my sons breathing is a lot better now, however no improvements on his enlarged tonsils.
Recently he seemed to take time in swallowing his food again, so I checked his tonsils and they have grown again. Can you please help us with this.
 
HussainMN 8 years ago
please give Calcarea Carb 30 one dose.

We gave him the dose you suggested on Saturday. It's been four days but no difference. Tonsils are very big and is affecting his breathing. We can hear him breathing again. Please advise further.
 
HussainMN 8 years ago
Give one dose Tuberculinum 200 again.

Hi again. My son's tonsils are still big, and he is constantly clearing his throat. His breathing is also heavier. Can you please advise us further.
 
HussainMN 8 years ago
Yes. Give one dose Tuberculinum 200 again.

Hi, Since our last contact in November my son's tonsils had reduced a lot, however, we now notice again that they have grown huge. This has in turn affected his breathing, especially when sleeping. Please advise us further. Thank you.
