Clinically speaking, allergic rhinitis is characterised by rhinorrhea, nasal obstruction, itching, and sneezing, all of which can be treated or resolved spontaneously. The treatment of allergic rhinitis in children by homoeopathic therapy has a lot of potential. Homoeopathic treatment is always based on similar symptoms. Every doctor's task of determining the precise potency is difficult. After much research and examination, Master Hahnemann discovered a new, modified, but ideal method of dynamization called the LM potency. Only a few research have been conducted on the effects of various potencies of Arsenicum iodatum, despite the fact that allergic rhinitis is one of the most prevalent disorders of the upper respiratory system. This research compares the clinical efficacy of LM with CM.
Tonsillitis is a common upper respiratory tract infection among children in school. Predictable therapy options are usually conservative because this ailment is self-limiting. In diagnosis of acute upper respiratory tract infections in children, homoeopathic medicines are a functional alternative to conventional pharmaceuticals, offering quicker symptoms resolution, cost-effectiveness, and less side effects. This study meant to determine the efficacy of homoeopathic medicines on the symptoms of tonsillitis in children below 15 years. The results of this study concluded that tonsillitis is more prevalent in male children between 10-15 year of age, and the leading remedies were Streptococcinum and Belladonna which gave a long standing improvement in the condition among children.
Rhinosinusitis can be brought on by an infection, nasal polyps, or enlargement of the sinus lining. Signs and symptoms include pain and inflammation around the eyes, cheeks, nose, or forehead, as well as a stuffy or blocked nostril which makes it difficult to breathe through the nose. A disorder known as sinusitis affects the four pairs of structures that surround the nasal canals and is characterised by inflammation. Sinusitis or rhinosinusitis is an inflammation of the paranasal sinuses and nasal cavities. The maxillary sinus is most frequently affected, followed by the ethmoid, frontal, and sphenoid sinuses in frequency, even though most episodes of sinusitis comprise more than one sinus. For the study, cases will be chosen at random from patients who visited the OPD at Sarada Krishna Homoeopathic Medical College and had symptoms of rhinosinusitis. The purpose of the study is to determine the effectiveness of homoeopathic medications in the management of rhinosinusitis. It also aims to evaluate the changes that homoeopathic treatment has caused in the patient and access those changes using the SNOT-22 score criteria. RESULT: Out of 10 instances, three (30%) demonstrated a significant improvement, six (60%) a moderate improvement, and one (10%) a slight improvement following the medication and routine follow-up. The most often utilised drug is Lycopodium. The potency used most frequently is 200.
Bronchitis is a sudden swelling in the major airways into the lungs, called bronchi. It is usually caused by a virus, but it can also be caused by breathing in things that irritate the lungs, such as tobacco smoke, fumes, dust, and air pollution. Bacteria sometimes cause bronchitis. Children are more prone to bronchitis and it accounts for about 25% of the OPD visits. Hence, this retrospective study is done to focus on the prevalence of bronchitis in children. A retrospective clinical study is done with 129 cases taken between July 2021 and December 2021 in the OPD of Sarada Krishna Homoeopathic Medical College. After a thorough study, it is evident that there is an increased prevalence of bronchitis in children and it has been treated based on totality of the symptoms. Much about acute bronchitis in children is uncertain even its definition. This study was undertaken to help build a clinical definition to serve as a guide for further research. Charts of 129 children 0 to 18 years old were reviewed. In a child with a cough bronchitis is more likely to be diagnosed if there is a history of sputum production Rales or rhonchi on examination and a past history of lower respiratory disease. Commonly used Homoeopathic medicines to treat bronchitis in children are Arsenicum album, Bryonia alba, Rhus toxicodendron, Pulsatilla, Antimonium tartaricum which showed their marked improvement in improving the sufferings of the children.
