CHRONIC SINUSITIS & HOMEOPATHY

ei_0386yygChronic sinusitis is a condition in which the sinuses inside our skull become inflamed for months and years together. This condition can considerably reduce ones quality of life. Patients suffering from chronic Sinusitis complain of difficulty in breathing from nose, headaches, pain and tenderness in the face.

Yellow greenish discharges may also be present from the nose and also from the back of the throat. In most cases, this kind of chronic inflammation in the sinuses is caused by underlying allergic reactions to pollen, pet dander, and dust mites, smoke etc. Homeopathic treatment of chronic sinusitis is very effective and has a strong edge over the conventional treatments. This is because homeopathic medicines along with the treatment of sinusitis cure the underlying allergies too. Thus preventing the recurrence of inflammation in sinuses.

Allergy tops the cause-list for chronic and recurrent sinusitis. Other reasons that trigger inflammation in the sinuses are infections like flu, common colds etc. ; blockages in the nose caused by a deviated nasal septum ,polyps and reaction to fungus in air. Sinuses are hollow spaces in our skull (bony structure of the head and the face). There are four pairs of sinuses in our skull. Sinusitis is the inflammation of one or more of these hollow spaces in the skull. These spaces are linked with the nose for free exchange of air by an opening in the nose. It is usually when this opening gets blocked by swelling in the nose due to common cold or allergies that the symptoms of sinusitis develop.

Symptoms of Chronic sinusitis resemble those of acute sinusitis, but usually last much longer and cause more fatigue. The main symptoms of chronic sinusitis are pain in the face and pressure in the areas of forehead, temples, cheeks, and nose and behind the eyes, discharge of a thick yellow or greenish discharge from the nose or down the back of the throat, obstructed and difficult breathing through the nose, diminished sense of smell or taste, frequent Headache (especially in morning), Teeth pain, Fatigue, Cough, and Sore throat.

As homeopathy is a symptom based system of medicine, the prescription is based upon the symptoms presented by the patient. Many symptomatic factors determine the choice of remedy .i.e. the type of discharges from the nose and throat, the sinus that is involved and other factors like the time of the year when this problem increases also its relation to weather. The main homeopathic medicines used for treating chronic sinusitis are Hydrastis, kali bichrome, Silicea and Merc Sol. Luffa Opercula requires a special mention for treating allergies and sinusitis both. Lemna Minor works well in cases where the sinusitis is complicated by nasal polyps.

At times the treatment of underlying allergy may also require a totally different set of medicines. Prescription based on the detailed study of the patient’s physical and mental makeup (which is also called as constitutional prescribing) is at times required to cure the allergy from the base.

    Dear Dr. Sharma,
    Greetings
    I am 41 years old, i am suffering from sinusitis from last 2.5 years, i am facing the breathing problem and nostril blockage specially severe towards left side, sometimes bad smell, fever, weight and protein loss and fatigue as well. Doctor has diagnosed the polyps in both the nostrils. presently i am taking the medicines teucrium marum verum 4x(10 drops thrice in a day), Lemma Minor Q(10 drops thrice in a day), Bio combination(8 pills in a day) and Omeo Allergy 2 tablets four times in a day. Still problem is going on, and i got afraid of the upcoming winter weather which always put me in more trouble. More important, doctor said that i have to take the medicine for 6 months, if not cured than i have to undergo the surgery. i have discussed with number of known people those who had already gone for the surgery, according to them sinusitis can have recurrence. i am bit scared please advise me, is it fully curable with the homeopathic medicines? and, is there any need to add or reduce the medicine which i am already taking?
    Regards,
    Narinder Sharma

  17. Charles M. says:

    Dear Dr. Sharma,
    I’ve been battling chronic sinusitis for over 10 years. I’ve had three nasal cavity surgeries to remove polyps, to correct a deviated septum, and to open up all of my sinuses, especially the frontal pair. Things are good for about a year but a slow diminishing of available airflow through my nose, especially at night, coupled with a decreasing sense of smell are inevitable. My last surgery was in July 2011. I cannot smell a thing right now and I have difficulty breathing through my nose in the morning and late afternoon until I wake up. Symptoms include no sense of smell, painful nasal blockage where the walls inside my nose can’t seem to press tight enough against each other, and thick, sticky, green and yellowish nasal discharge, explained to me to be “biofilm,” a general name given to any bodily product which is hard to classify. I have been to an allergist many times and it was determined I’m allergic to grass pollen and dog dander. I have two dogs. But I have spent significant amount of time away from them, in a canine-free environment, and have not noticed any change in my symptoms.
    I am at wit’s end and dread the thought of my ENT recommending another costly surgery. I just want to be able to breathe and smell. Help!

  18. i m a singer and i usally get phulgum more … i m getting iritated by this plz give me some
