Respiratory allergy 11618...India
A 14-year-old girl had been suffering from recurrent respiratory issues for two years since July 2021. Each episode began with a blocked nose, followed by heaviness in the head and face (particularly the cheeks and forehead), difficulty in breathing, especially during sleep, a mild cough and a sensation of phlegm in the lungs. The cold was consistently associated with headaches that started between the eyebrows, extending to the forehead and the start of the hairline, and then radiating to the back of the head. The pain was throbbing in nature and often severe on both sides of the head. These episodes, triggered by cold weather, dust, refrigerated foods, and change of water*, occurred 2 to 3 times a month, each lasting about a week. From Nov 2021, she also developed sneezing bouts, 8-10 times, in the mornings.
Drinking warm water, gargling with saltwater and avoiding triggers provided some relief. In Dec 2021, when the doctor diagnosed her condition as respiratory allergy, she was given medical therapy for two weeks, along with dietary advice to boost her immunity. The symptoms became quiescent for about three months but then recurred; further treatment provided only temporary relief; So, she again relied on supportive measures such as steam inhalation and gargling and avoided triggers.
On learning about vibrionics from a friend, she visited the practitioner on 21 Dec 2023. At that time, she also complained of poor memory, anxiety related to her upcoming board exams and burning sensation in abdomen for past one month. She was given:
For exam stress, abdominal burning sensation:
#1. CC4.10 Indigestion + CC15.1 Mental & Emotional tonic + CC17.3 Brain & Memory tonic…6TD
For headache:
#2. CC3.7 Circulation + CC10.1 Emergencies + CC11.3 Headaches + CC11.4 Migraines + CC18.1 Brain disabilities + CC18.5 Neuralgia…TDS

#3. CC9.2 Infections acute + CC19.2 Respiratory allergies + CC19.3 Chest infections chronic + CC19.5 Sinusitis + CC19.6 Chronic cough…TDS
#4. IB…OD (Vol 15 #2)
She was counselled to stay positive and include fresh fruits in her diet, drink 2 to 3 litres of water daily and focus on her breathing whenever she felt stressed or anxious.
