DO you suffer from bouts of frequent sneezes, itchy and runny nose? Do you often wake up sneezing in the morning? Does sneezing and runny nose occur during a particular weather or when there is change of weather? Or, do you wheeze or do your eyes feel itchy with sneezing and runny nose? If you have some or all of these symptoms then you may be suffering from nasal allergy.Nasal allergy, also called allergic rhinitis or hay fever or pollinosis, is an allergic reaction of the body (mainly the upper respiratory tract and eyes) to certain substances – allergens – that we breathe in. The main allergens are pollens, molds, animal dander and dust.Allergy is nothing but an over-sensitisation of our defence system. This means that our immune system (defence system) starts reacting to a substance which is otherwise harmless to our body. In other words, it is a misdirected immune attack.Pollens are usually the main culprits.Homeopathic treatment is based on the principle of “like cures like”. This means if a substance that in its raw state produces a disease condition also has the ability to treat similar symptoms when given in diluted and activated (potentised) form.Thus, a lot many plants whose pollens are the known culprits for this kind of allergy are being used in homeopathy to treat allergic rhinitis. By giving a substance that has similar manifestations, homeopathy is able to optimise the already over-sensitised immune system.Two medicines which represent new advance in homeopathy are Galphimia Glauca and Histaminum Hydrochlo-ride.A US study found Galphimia Glauca to be highly effective in treating allergic rhinitis. Many other very effective plant-based medicines have also been introduced during the last few years: Cardiospermum Halicacabum and Amni Visnaga, for example. Conventional homeopathic medicines like Allium Cepa , Sabadilla , Arundo Mur, Ambrosia and Aralea are also very effective. It is important to remember that homoeopathy is a system where the treatment is based on the patient’s individual symptoms. Thus, each medicine has its own important place in treating allergic rhinitis. It may take a season or two to completely cure allergic rhinitis.With growing industrialisation, our bodies are changing according to the environment .A BMJ (formerly British Medical Journal) report has it that one in six people in the industrialised world suffers from seasonal pollen allergies. Pollution does not cause allergy directly, but is supposed to increase the sensitivity to pollens. In Japan, it was found that the sensitivity to pollens was high in people living in areas with high levels of diesel exhaust particles in the environment. Genetic factors are also supposed to play a role in developing nasal allergy.

Hi Dr. Sharma,
I have been suffering from allergic rhinitis from last 5 years. I take allopathic anti allergic tabs like citrazine, allegra etc. But the symptoms goes off temporarily and come back after some time. Initially it used to happen in some months. But now the frequency of allergy attacks has gone from months to weeks to days. I have started using inhaler on doctor’s consultation because i feel breathlessness some time. I have permanent cough.Whenever I miss the drugs/ nasal spray i feel itching in eyes, cough , running nose and repetitive sneezing. I have seen that the condition aggravates when the weather is humid compared to dry weather.
I have heard a lot about allergen immunology. Is it possible in Homeopathy too. Pls help.
Regards,
Dilip

Dear Dr. Sharma,
I found your article most interesting. I’m 33 years old and have been suffering from Rhinitis for a good six years now. It started when I lived in a house with a cat but I left that house three years ago and the condition has remained the same. I had an allergy test and was told I was allergic to cats but it must be more than that. I’m continually faced with a runny nose. It’s clear discharge. I saw an ENT specialist but yet again they just want to kick me out the door with a nasal spray rammed up my nose for good measure. The last time I tried nasal spray my nose began to bleed after three months of use. I’m absolutely and utterly tired of using medicine of this capacity. I believe that there must be a cure out there in this vast world of ours that doesn’t involve steroid nasal spray. I am getting nowhere with conventional doctors here in London, England and my ailment is effecting my quality of life in a big way. Please advise.
Kind regards,
Grant
i am suffering form allergic rhinitis , please suggest me some homeopathy medicines.
Dear Doctor
I have an infected tooth with visible deep cavity on its front side. About a year back this tooth caused me severe toothache that lead me to Dentists twice. Dentists suggested me for Root Canalling but I avoided that and instead used first Hypercum-200 for 2-3 days followed by Silicea-200 taken for 4-5 days. The puss of the tooth was cleared via a gum-boil and my tooth was back to normal again. But infection at the roots of the tooth comes back intermittently and I feel mild soreness in the tooth and tooth becomes loose in the socket. Can you suggest a remedy to root out tooth infection permanently. I am 57 year old male and there is no toothache.
I wake up in the morning with runny nose triggered by a sneeze,i get cold & sneeze in winter seasons frequently,i have this problem since childhood.should i take homeopathy?
