Homeopathy Helped Eliminate the Need for Frequent Antibiotics and Nasal Sprays

An 8-year-old girl from Mumbai, Ms. K.P. (Patient ID: 54121), visited the Kemp’s Corner clinic and began treatment at LifeForce Homeopathy for the complaint of recurrent tonsillitis on March 26, 2024.

She had been suffering from this issue for the past two years, but the condition had worsened in the last two months. She used to get episodes of a cold and cough every 15 days. Her tonsils were swollen and painful. She used to sleep with her mouth open, and her nose was often blocked. There was difficulty in swallowing due to the enlarged tonsils. She had been prescribed antibiotics and nasal sprays during these episodes, but the relief was temporary, and the issue persisted.

Her appetite was average. There was no specific desire for any particular food or drink. Her thirst for water was also average. Sleep was sound and refreshing.

She was studying in the 2nd standard. Her father was in the Indian Navy, and her mother was a housewife. The patient was naturally sensitive and emotional. She was also shy and introverted.

There were no major past illnesses in the patient or her family.

After studying the case in detail, Dr. Shah prescribed Silicea 30 along with some research-based homeopathic medicines.

Follow-ups:

On 14th May 2024, the patient’s mother reported that there was a slight improvement with the medicines. The tonsils were still swollen, but throat pain was no longer present. She still slept with her mouth open, and nasal blockage persisted. However, the intensity of the episodes had reduced compared to before. Based on this feedback, Dr. Shah reviewed the case and prescribed further medicines.

On 13th August 2024, the patient’s mother shared that she was almost 50% better. The episodes of cold and cough had reduced. Throat pain and difficulty in swallowing were no longer present. Her appetite had improved, and she had started eating normally. She occasionally got a sore throat after having cold items, but there was no need for antibiotics or any other allopathic medication. Overall, there was noticeable improvement with the medicines.

On 15th November 2024, the parents reported further improvement. In between, she had a mild cough, but the intensity was much less than before. She had a runny nose in the mornings, but apart from that, there were no major complaints. She was overall doing better with the homeopathic treatment, and there was no need for allopathic medicines. The parents were very happy with the results.

On 29th March 2025, the patient’s mother informed that she was doing even better. Though the size of the tonsils remained the same, there was no infection. Since starting homeopathic treatment, she has not experienced any major episodes of cold or cough. There was steady progress with the treatment.

On 16th May 2025, her mother reported that the child was almost 90% better. There had been no major episodes for the past year. The cough and cold were completely resolved. The size of the tonsils remained unchanged, but there was no infection. Since starting homeopathic treatment, there has been no need for antibiotics or nasal sprays.

The patient and her parents expressed heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Shah and the entire LifeForce team for helping her recover and bringing such remarkable improvement. They were very happy with the results achieved through homeopathy.
