Asthma is usually caused by an unknown allergy and can be aggravated by infections such as colds and influenza, as well as by anxiety.

Its acute phase can be very frightening, and even dangerous if the attack is severe when the sufferer is fighting for every breath.

If this happens, seek medical help immediately: it can be dangerous. Constitutional homeopathic treatment by a qualified homeopath is essential for significant relief, and this takes time.

It can be hard to distinguish between a bad cold and mild influenza, and because names make little difference in homeopathy, both of these ailments are treated together here.

If you get very many colds a year then you should seek help from a professional homeopath to strengthen your immune system. Generally, if you are not beginning to feel better after a few days and you feel your body is “stuck” and needs a bit of help then consider contacting a professional homeopath.

An infection of the middle ear, otitis media, is the most common cause and can be persistent in children.

Conventional medicine usually treats it with antibiotics if a bacterial cause is suspected. The pain may be accompanied by fever and deafness. Always seek medical advice if the pain persists or is intolerable, as the eardrum may be on the point of rupturing.

Homeopathic treatment can be helpful in both acute cases and in the chronic condition.

Homeopathic remedies are useful for conjunctivitis and blepharitis.

Conjunctivitis is an inflammation of the mucous membrane that covers and protects the front of the eye, and which also lines the lids. Blepharitis is an inflammation of the eyelids themselves.

Wash the eyes frequently and wash your hands immediately afterwards to prevent the infection spreading.

In homeopathy, emotional symptoms are considered every bit as important as physical ones, and in chronic disease, they are usually treated with even more importance.

Serious problems arising from deep grief are best dealt with by a professional homeopath.

Haemorrhoids are varicose veins around the anal canal. They often protrude or rupture and can be extremely painful.

Blood discharged while passing stools is a symptom. Seek medical treatment if symptoms worsen over time. Fortunately, homeopathic treatment can be used both internally and externally.

Hayfever is an allergy affecting the nose and eyes; its cause is a weakened immune system. It can be an extremely stubborn ailment to treat since a permanent cure depends on raising the quality of the immune system.

A professional homeopath can do this through constitutional homeopathic treatment; even so, it may rake two or three seasons to eradicate the problem completely.

Sinuses are small cavities in the bones around the eyes and above the nose. In sinusitis, the membranes inside the cavities become swollen and inflamed and the symptoms are a blocked nose, discharge, and sometimes pain and fever in more severe cases.

Colds or allergies may begin the inflammation. The homeopathic remedies that help relief sinusitis are usually the common cold remedies.

Sore throats can result from both viral or bacterial infection, catarrh, or dryness of the membranes.

Usually, the symptoms clear fairly quickly without treatment, although the bacterial infection known as “strep throat” (streptococcus) can be more persistent and may require medical help. Chronic sore throats require constitutional homeopathic treatment.

Because homeopathic remedies are tailored uniquely to each individual, finding the right remedy may require a visit to a certified homeopath.
