Guest guest Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 My son (who just turned two at the end of February) is having a hard time this weekend. I'm thinking it's allergies. His eyes are running, as well as his nose, and he is coughing. He is also running a fever which has peaked to about 103, but we are keeping it under control. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions for him to feel better? I am giving him Ibuprofen/Tylenol for fever, but I'm hesitant for anything else. He's miserable, and we need some relief. Please help! Thanks! ~KC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Please try to get some homeopathy for emergencies like this - if you give your little one some Cell Salts - Ferr. Phos 6x and then also Aconite 12x this would be gone in no time - try and get the Ferr from your HFS - they often stock them - and the Aconite too if you're lucky - otherwise the Washington Homeopathic company will have it Best, Jane - " kellony24 " <kellony24 Monday, April 28, 2008 1:05 AM Toddler Allergies... help!

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Hi, We had the same problem, allergies, with both of our boys. The older one had his in the form of hives and ear infections, while the younger one had the teary eyes and runny nose. For our older one, the only thing that worked was a prescription from the allergist until the age of three. We moved and in the move, the three bottles were broken in a crash. The new pediatrician refused to give him that med. and nothing else helped. We ended up taking him to a herbal doctor, who put him on some herbs, which really helped. He is now much better, although after a recent move, has allergies again, though only the runny nose. It helps that he is also a good deal older. Our younger boy never had luck with the herbs. With him, it was just having to try to limit where he went and to use Benadryl. He did have it far worse, overall. As an infant and toddler, he would vomit when he ate an allergen (peas), otherwise, for all airborn stuff, he had the runny nose bit. Neither of our boys ever had fever with allergy illness, though, so I can't say much about that. Keeping the food allergens away was easy, and still is, although the food list has gotten longer. What now works well for him is homeopathic remedies by Newton's. That is the only company that has worked for him. Good luck!

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 I would suggest giving children's aspirin, it lowers fever better then Tylenol. Also just so that you are aware, allergies do not cause fevers, and in a child that young I would be very concerned about such a high fever. Make sure he gets enough fluids, and you should probably make an appointment with your pediatric doctor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Stage one with allergies should always be change your a/c filter every few months. Preferably with one of the more pricey filters. And always run either heat or ac. Never just " air " because you encourage condensation in the ducts and may promote mold growth. Also electrostatic air filters in the house help. I've got an " ionic breeze " which really freshens the air in one room. - " Amy Hinton " <awsomeaim Sunday, April 27, 2008 11:48 PM Re: Toddler Allergies... help! > Hi, > > We had the same problem, allergies, with both of our > boys.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Your son is suffering from worm problem. Fever which comes in the evening and rise up to 103 or more generally generates from stomach where you will find that stomach is much inflamed - burning like fire, legs are cold, lips and cheeks are shining deep pink and patient when temperature rises and he will not accept any solid food only ask for water. The medicine you are applying may reduce the flare of temperature but it will back to square A once the action of the medicine is diluted. If you are interested in homoeo treatment, you may like to mail me at subratadashomoeo for better advise and prescription for free.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Did you know tylenol lowers glutathione levels? I can't find my links for you but you can read about glutathione on my website. www.buttercuppuppies.com It would be on my autism page and my health/links page. Different info on beach page.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Hi Kc, It is so hard to watch your child be sick, you just want to help them feel better. Poor little guy sounds like he is pretty miserable. Allergy's can cause the fever because it creates upper respiratory infection. My question to you is what are you using for cleaners, laundry products, air fresheners, shampoo, and bath soaps. If you are not using green cleaners and laundry products, the change might help him a lot, and there is a lot of harmful chemicals in bath soaps and shampoos for children. I would like to tell you about my daughter who is 30 now, and was diagnosed with allergy's and asthma at age 6. She has two children and of course they were both diagnosed with allergy's and asthma. When we think of allergy's we often think of outside elements, but most people spend most of their time inside. Over a year ago my daughter changed to green cleaners, and safer personal care, without all of the harmful chemicals in them. She told me about a month ago that this last year is the first time in 24 years that she did not have to use steroids or antibiotics. Her and the children are off of all their medications, and no longer catch everything that is going around. The chemicals in store bought brands can cause a lot of things, and allergy's are on top of that list. I am going to pass along to you a couple of things that might help you with your son. First go to your search engine and enter " Toxic Brew " , there are 2 great video's to watch on the harms of chemicals in your home. They are put together by Scientists, Doctor's, and Environmental Specialist. Very informative information. If you would like to find a place to shop for green products I will pass along to you what my daughter and I use. Go to www.smartlivingsense.com there is a toxic check list on that site that is very good, along with a free ebook on living green. This is a wellness co. so they have all kinds of natural remedy's. If you want more information please email me, I would be glad to help you any way that I can. My daughter or I do not sell these products, just happy customers. Hope this info helps you with your son. Annie , " kellony24 " <kellony24 wrote: > > My son (who just turned two at the end of February) is having a hard > time this weekend.

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 So sorry to hear about your son. My also suffers from allergies and asthma. What seems to work for him includes the following remedies: running a steamy shower and allowing him to inhale the steam (not too hot). It adds moisture to his lungs and quiets the cough. Also, a cool mist humidifier (make sure it is large enough to provide adequate mist for the room) is also helpful to add moisture and quell the cough. A natural saline solution used as a nasal spray is helpful to drain the sinuses and keeping his head elevated so that the mucus does not settle in the back of the throat helps as well. Hydration is also very important as the body cannot achieve homeostasis if dehydrated and with a fever, dehydration quickly sets in. A fever lasting several days could be a sign of an acute infection so you may want to seek professional support for that part. I hope this helps.
