Went to the DR for my 2 yr old has had runny nose, cough, and slight fever. She is miserable with not eating and has red runny eyes from not sleeping. I have rubbed Vicks child on her and filled the room with a vaporizer. Has anyone used the homeopathic medicine for colds? I have a bottle and cannot get her to swallow it. It does not taste that great. Any idea if I can mix it with juice or milk? Will it dilute it or can it be done? Does it work?
Help please..need remedies and solutions ..
Thanks
Did you rub the Vicks in a thick layer on the bottom of her feet and then put on socks when she went to bed? This helps not only my kids, but us when we are coughing as well. These things usually just need to work their way out of our body. I hope you find something that helps. Good luck.
I've responded this post a few times in the past, but I can't find it in my profile. I crank up the humidifier and rub my girls down with essential oils, R.C. and Raven. If the cough bothers them at night, I prop up their mattress so they are sleeping at a slight incline.
Hylands Childrens cold and cough, its amazing I take it myself and no side effects. Kids love the taste or you can hide it in juice. Also Hylands can be used with tylenol or motrin as well. If you want to clear up some congestion , heat up a cup of water in the microwave and then stir some Thyme and rosemary in it, take it into bath time and run a warm bath shut all doors and let stir the cup of spices and let it sit int here with you dirung bathtime. It will help her with congestion during that time. Also you can buy thyme oils from bature path store and add it to a humidifier to ease her breathing at night. makes the house smell so good too
Hi H.,
The homeopathic cold medicine works best for us when it is given at the onset of symptoms. I know you feel so helpless, but the best thing for a cold is to make them comfortable. What did the Doctor Suggest. Limit dairy intake as well, as it increases congestion and plenty of liquids.
