Know How Homeopathy Helps To Treat Cold And Cough!

Common cold and cough are some of the most common viral illnesses that have no specific treatment. Allopathic medicines provide palliative cure to just treat the symptoms, there is no definite antiviral for it. There is also popular belief having a cold once or twice a year is a good way to cleanse the body.

Here is the homeopathic treatment for it:

1. Influenzinum - It is a homeopathic remedy for flu. The medicine, which is diluted and potentized, strengthens the immune system to fight against flu viruses. It does not suppress the symptoms but makes your immune system strong to not allow foreign viruses to affect your health.
2. Aconitum or aconite - Used in the early stages of a cold that was sudden in onset and severe. There could be associated with nasal discharge, fever and chills, chest congestion, itchy throat, and traumatic experience. The person may also feel thirsty, anxious, and agitated.
3. Allium cepa - Severe burning and watery eyes, nasal irritation, copious amounts of discharge, hoarseness, and headache. The runny nose improves in the open air but worsens when being indoors.
4. Aconite - This medicine is recommended by homeopathic Doctor when the most preliminary signs of common cold appear, such as getting thirsty frequently and being overly-anxious.
5. Belladonna - Belladonna is for more severe signs of cold, such as high fever and persistence of a throbbing headache.
6. Natrum mur - This medicine is effective for a runny nose, with initially clear snot thickening after a period of 24-48 hours.
