We are now in the winter time when there are lots of viruses around which can give the symptoms of a cough, a cold or lots of sneezing.
Homeopathy can help reduce the symptoms. The reason is because we are not limited to just a few drugs, we have the wealth of mother nature. Maybe not all of it, but we do have thousands of remedies.
The other advantage is that in our Repertories (list of symptoms) our coughs are not just ‘a cough’ but e.g. ‘barking’ cough; a ‘choking’ or ‘suffocative’ cough; a ‘constant’ cough; a ‘croupy’ cough; a ‘deep’ cough’ a ‘dry’ cough; an ‘exhausting’ cough; a ‘hacking’ cough.
And then there are what we call modalities such as: worse from:
The effects of air;
Autumn
Bathing
On becoming cold
Morning/evening/afternoon
Drinking or eating, and so on.
And with a cold, you could have a fever or a chill; maybe post nasal drip. The colour of the discharge from your nose would be taken into account whether yellow or greenish yellow. The consistency of the discharge is also taken into account, such as thin, watery, thick, viscid, purulent or lumpy.
With the sneezing it could be with a runny nose, or accompanied with coughing; or it could be aggravated in the evening or morning.
So all your symptoms are taken into account.
