Dr. Kadwa pls help - Chronic Sinus inflammation and Chest Congestion Page 2 of 2

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Dear Dr. Kadwa,

OK I will take only Natrum Sulph. I have the following symptoms still continuing. Please suggest

1. Post Nasal Drip occurs every 2-3 hours. It has been reduced though, compared to when I started the remedies in the beginning.

2. Now the congestion in Nostrils remain in the lower area ( The Maxillary Sinus area). When I get up in the morning I find rubbery yellowish mucus coming out of this area when I blow my nose couple of times to clear the congestion. And because of this I still experience one nostril blocked fequently throughout the days and while sleeping but not always.

3. The Frontal sinus pressure is now much and much better though little bit pressure still remains. And When I wear glasses for more than 1-2 hours I feel more pressure. Please note that earlier I used to have this pain aggravated when I wear glasses for 15-20min. So condition is definitely improving. But please suggest to speed up the recovery.

4. The ethmoid sinus area also get more pressure when I wear glasses. And this makes my eyes burning sensation and irritation until I take out my glasses. And the burning sensation lasts for one hour or so after taking out the glasses as well.

Please suggest.

Dear Dr. Kadwa,

Though there are still 2 more days continue with Nat Sulph and then report you, I thought of updating you at this point. Please note that I had taken Calc Carb 200c for two days earlier in this phase of remedy.

Improvements :

1. Nasal discharge is almost gone except I get while doing Anulom Vilom.

2. Dull pressure on my forehead due to frontal sinuse has been drastically reduced. I feel there is 5-7% left and I will recover completely from this. However, when I wear glasses I still experience pressure around the forehead, eyes , faces and that propagates to top of my head. But I do definitely see the improvement of wearing the glasses for longer time than before until the pressure becomes unbearable or worsen.

3. Post Nasal Drip is almost gone but I get once or twice a day.

Not improved much :

1. Chest congestion is still there and when the weather carries humidity in case of rain or foggy weather, I feel chest tightness and uneasiness in my chest. However, I do see the improvement of about 5-10% in condition what it was prior to taking Nat Sulph.

2. Though there is no nasal discharge any more, I still find my stiffness in two of my nostril frequently due to inflammation.

Please suggest what is next as I am more about the chest congestion, uneasiness, tightness and sometime suffocation. Thank you.

Please continue with Natrum Sulph 6x for another week.

Please take three doses of Belladonna 200 at a gap of one hour when you have episodes of chest congestion.

Dear Dr Kadwa,

The Chest congestion is there since last 2 years as I have mentioned the case is chronic in the beginning. So I always experience little uneasiness due to this. However, the chest tightness and uneasiness worsen when the weather changes with humidity. Shortage of breath is also there as I explained earlier if you remember.

So please suggest how Belladonna 200 will be taken in this situation ?

Also what about the Nasal congestion that is due to the maxillary sinus though the discharge has gone down. I also noticed when the weather is rainy or cloudy and if I roam outside, then my nostrils get blocked ( maxillary sinus area only ) and later when I clear I get white discharge. Please reply because due to this nasal congestion makes my breathing uncomfortable for sometime.

If there is a significant relapse in your symptoms you should repeat calc carb 200 for 2 days as you did earlier.

Please see to what extent belladonna affects you. These remedies are expected to help you overall.
 
kadwa last decade
Do you suggest I should take Calc Carb for another 2 days and take belladonna ONLY when I have chest tightness,chest congestion worsen ?

At the sametime should I also continue Natrum Sulph for another week ?

By the way, I have been suffering this chest congestion ( along with sinus inflammation , which is much better now) for last 2 years. I had sent you the coughing sound file earlier if you remember.

pras1972 last decade
Calc may not be repeated at this stage.

If chest symptoms worsen you should take Belladonna.

If overall symptoms worsen you should take calc for 2 days.

You should continue with Natrum Sulph 6x.

Hello ppp17,

You are most welcome to solicit help from Dr. Kadwa or others. It is appreciated if you create a separate post for your case as it will avoid confusions.

This post is dedicated to my case and I would appreciate if it remains like that. Thank you.

Dear Dr. Kadwa,

Here is an update :

No improvement other than the Nasal Discharge has been almost stopped as reported earlier. Following are the symptoms

1. Dull pressure on forehead area. When wearing glasses it still puts considerable pressure on eyes, forehead etc.

2. Any one of the nostrils is blocked 50% while other nostil is blocked 10%.

3. No improvement on chest congestion and tightness. It is still there like before with very little improvement as I mentioned previously.

I am still continuing Natrum Sulph. I have also noticed by taking Calc Carb for 2 days very recently the sinus inflammation is much better.

There was no need of Belladonna as I have not experience chest symptom worst.


Please suggest next. Thank you.

Please stop all remedies and see how it goes in next few days. Please don't have any wars with your sinuses!!
 
kadwa last decade
Dear Dr. Kadwa,

I will stop all the remedies from today and report you back on Saturday/Sunday. As an update, today I had considerable sinus pressure pain on on my forehead and burning sensation on areas around my eyes. It did last from 12pm - 4pm and slowly diminished in the evening.

On a different note, though I won't invite 'wars' to my sinus, how did you find the ingredients of the sinus products I have mentioned ? Do you think it is really useful ?

Please note that, the dull pressure on my forehead, burning sensation on my eyes and above area are hampering my productivty during my office/work hours. And when I have to wear my glasses such as while attending a office meeting , the pressure is worst around face, forehead and eyes. That is why I am little worried. And on top of that the chest congestion/tightness feeling making me uncomfortable as well.


I just don't know what to do.

i don't think that the combo remedies will help you.

You may take gelsemium 30 in the morning and evening for few days if your eye and forehead problem gets worse.
 
kadwa last decade
Dear Dr. Kadwa,

Do you mean to say, I should take Gelsemium 30c for next few days or only when the eye area and forehead pressure becomes worst due to sinus pressure?

The pressure on eyes area and forehead also becomes worst when I wear glasses for a while.

I have another question. From last few weeks, while I am sleeping at night, one of my nostrils ( either left or right ) get blocked completely. I could feel that the mucus flow is obstructed that time in my maxillary sinus. And when I wake up in the morning I notice the mocus flow adjusts itself and two of my nostrols opens up ( though with a partial blockage).


The Post Nasal Drip which was condition which was little bitter few days back seems to get back again. Mucus are getting stuck on my throat every 30-40min which makes me clean my throat frequently. Please suggest.

If it is more than 15 days that you have taken calc carb 200, you should take it for 2 days.

We will postpone our decision on gels for the time being.

Please write a schedule of homeopathic remedies taken in chronological order for ready reference in your next post.
