Suggest Treatment For Asthma In Children

Hi, I am very worried about my 5 year old son. Since Friday night, he has been having a very bad cough which wakes him up either vomiting or short of breath. I have to give him his inhaler to help ease the cough. He was diagnosed with asthma, but doesn t use his inhaler on a regular basis. For the past weeks I have also noticed that he started to snore again after several months of not doing so. The snoring has gotten so bad to the point that he has times when he doesn t breathe. He also at times drools . My 6 month old has a cold as well, and she has a bad cough to the point where she also wakes up crying, vomiting and I have to give her her nebulizer. She had erythromycin ointment prescribed for her eyes since she had pink eye. Now my son has the same problem going on with his eyes. I don t know if they have the same thing going on, but I am greatly concerned about his breathing, lack of. In the day, he is fine, he doesn t even suffer from a cough nor are his eyes releasing any mucousy discharge. It is only at night like I said that he has a very bad cough accompanied by vomit he sweats and complains that his stomach hurts. also, in the day he tends to be hyperactive. I was told that his tonsils and adenoids are enlarged. I am very worried what do you recommend me to do. Also, at he was a preemie at 35 weeks gestation and suffered from RSV at 2 months old.

Hi welcome to HCm

Gone thru your query about your children's problems .I can understand your concern .
For your info , Coughing is a natural body reflex
It keeps the lungs, throat and airway clear of foreign material and vomiting
further helps in clearing .
Sometimes , inflammation in throat ,lungs and airways causes irritable cough .
Constant coughing is irritable and requires treatment .

Dear , one thing is sure to understand , that inhaler or nublizer is a very short term remedy. Indiscriminate use of it suppresses the mucous and worsens the condition . It should be used in emergency only .
You have to find out remedies natural, non-invasive .
Based on the principles of Ayurveda, the ancient Indian science of healing, are completely natural, non-invasive, and can be prepared at home.

First of all you need to give him a glass or 2 of warm water with little salt mixed in it , and make them vomit , at least once a day ,empty stomach , to detoxify the system . Give both of them little warm water 2-3 times a day . Don't give them cold beverages .
Soak 7 almonds in water overnight Peel the skin in the morning Crush them to make a paste. Add a Tspoon of honey and a little salt .Mix well Eat this every morning and evening .
Using paste of basil leaves, ginger and honey for your son , gives relief in cough.
As your daughter is too small , give her decotion of basil leaves mixed with honey 5-6 drops 3-4 times a day .
Give Homoepathic Chamomilla 200 / 4 hourly / 3 doses /2 days
Repeat 1 dose for 3 days , if required

Baryta Carb 200 / 1 dose/ weekly /3 dodes . Give Fortnightly /1 dose / thrice ,thereafter .
This treatment will cover adenoids and throat problems also .
Keep eyes clean with clean water of your children and apply 1-2 drops of almond oil on their eyes 2- 3 a day , specially when they are asleep .

Give them nourishing Diet but less oily till the problem persists .

Avoid processed foods carbs , sugar , fried ,fast foods , Tea , coffee , stress , sleeplessness and Constipation all will produce biochemical and metabolic conditions in your body that will decrease your immunity.
So avoiding is definitely the first step in the right direction to detoxing the body, boosting the immune system .

Regular check ups from your proffesoinal are recommended .
Consult your doctor if the symptoms persist
