The ABC Homeopathy Forum
sinusitis? allergy? (long)
I just found this forum, interested to get an opinion. For the last couple of years, i have had this recurring swelling in the left side of my face (under left eye, brow, pressure close to bridge of nose). Some times it is very subtle. It can last for up to a week, or just a few days, reoccurring every couple of weeks or it can skip a month. It seems to be worse in the fall. I saw my allergist and he was stumped. He did give me a steroid shot and it cleared up. He thinks it is an allergy because of this.There is rarely any pain, or excessive drainage. There is fatigue and irritability (similar to a BAD pms). I do see a chiropractor that prescribes natural supplements and some homeopathic remedies. He uses msas testing to help determine things.

During an episode, i do not wake up refreshed. When the episode starts it is usually in the evening or late afternoon

The swelling is slight today, there is pressure down around my left nostril. No congestion to relieve. .just the pressure/swelling. As the day goes on fatigue/irritability

whenever you have the next occurance of sinus or swelling,
take PULSATILLA 200C every four hours till you notice a change in the affected part.
taper down the frequency to two doses a day once you notice a marked improvement.
take the doses maximum for 3 days.
if you do not get any change even in three days, you can try KALI CARB 200C three doses only.
