Treat your autumn allergy with homeopathy
Do you find yourself having a runny itchy nose, watery eyes and severe sneezing episodes at this time of the year? If so, you may be suffering from allergic rhinitis and also you are among the estimated 25 per cent of the Indians affected by one or the other form of allergies. Come September and October, many suffer from these dreadful seasonal ?autumn allergy? attacks also known as hay fever or allergic rhinitis. Pollens seem to be the main cause. The other main causative factor in this region is the paddy threshing dust. In rural areas this is a very common trigger during these months.
Commonly called ?hay fever?, pollen allergies are among the most common chronic conditions. The most common producers of allergenic pollen include weeds, grasses and trees. These dry pollens are disseminated by the wind and trigger allergy symptoms. Common symptoms include sneezing, congestion, a runny nose, and itchiness in the nose, roof of the mouth, throat, eyes and ears
Allergic rhinitis has another type too. The perennial type occurs all throughout the year and is not affected by the time of the year. Dust mites, animal dander and mold spores are usually the main causes. Early morning sneezing attacks are quite typical of dust mite allergies.
An allergy refers to an abnormal reaction to certain substances called allergens.. Just as the country?s defence forces are trained to identify the enemy and attack it, our immune system identifies the body?s enemies like bacteria, viruses, etc and eliminates them. The country?s forces never attack our civilians; similarly, our immune system ignores useful substances like food and drugs and useless or harmless substances like pollengrains, dust and animal dander. However, if the immune system goes awry and reacts to such useful or harmless substances, then the person is said to have developed an allergy. Such substances, called allergens, may be inhaled, swallowed or may come into contact with the skin.
HOW HOMEOPATHY WORKS IN ALLERGIES
Homoeopathic treatment of allergic rhinitis offers a better promise. Many such allergies can be treated permanently, though it may take one or two seasons before it is completely wiped out. Allium Cepa leads the homoeopathic table in treating this acute phase of allergic rhinitis. It is highly recommended for autumn allergy conditions with the following symptoms. Frequent sneezing, constant dripping of watery discharge; which may burn like fire, and excoriate the upper lip and wings of the nose, all symptoms are worse indoors; better in open air. It is also very effective in treating morning attacks of sneezing that come during the months of autumn. If symptoms match, one dose of Allium Cepa 30c daily can be used to treat the condition, which occurs during this period of the year. Further constitutional treatment should be followed under the guidance of a professional homoeopath
Useful tips
- * During the peak allergic weather use facemask while moving outdoors.
- * Keep windows closed to prevent pollens and molds from drifting into your home. Air-conditioning can also help reduce your pollen exposure.
- * Minimise your early morning activity (between 5 and 10 a.m.) when pollen counts are higher.
- * Keep your home?s relative humidity level at or below 50 per cent by using airconditioners. This will discourage dust mite and mold growth.
- * Carpet and flooring: allergens are easily removed from carpet and floors by regular vacuuming.
- * Kitchen and bathroom: The wet, warm conditions of these rooms provide the perfect condition for mold and mildew to thrive. Repairing leaks and cleaning kitchens and bathrooms every week with a disinfectant designed to kill mold and mildew is the best way to combat them

I just take 1/2 a cetrizine every alternate day.

I am suffering from severe allergic rhinitis for last 5 years. It occurs mainly in February to April. It causes nasal discharge, nasal block and resultant mouth breathing. This intriduces strong cough and somwtimes wheeze when allergic rhinitis is very severe. Somehow I have a feeling that it occurs with Eucalyptus pollen as we have this in plenty in our residential campus. I have tried antihistaminics, bronchodilators as well as topical steroids. This time it became so severe that i had to be put on oral steroids. I am looking for any homeopathic medication which may reduce my symptoms to some extent, if not cure
Dr. A Gupta
U can try to use Homeo medicine Eucaliptus-30c thrice in a day 4 drops with half cup of fresh water.
And when your nasal will block by strong cough then u can take Lemma minor-3X , 4 grain in a dose 2 times per day; morning & evening.
