What worked for me till date :


  • Buy a steam vaporizer for kids , I found this good, steaming before good night and early morning helps, It also will maintain moisture in house.
  • Apart from Dr recommended medication, Drink a spoon of honey and ginger (just crush it and create a spoonful juice)
  • Protect from Cold. It aggravates the problem. buy thermal set , ask to wear socks in house, Buy room heater.
  • Do not allow to play in dust ( who listens ?)
  • Try not to eat out (Panipuri, kachori,samosa, ice creams, chips,Pizza,cold drinks) Did I mentioned Kurkure and Cheetos and road side ice candy (worst you can do )
  • Hot steam vapors a Must.
  • Hot water gargling.
  • Build the immunity in Summer time when the problem is less ( Join swimming )
  • Do not give milk product (Chemical Milk , result in gas formation, stomach will be upset and you will go mad without knowing whose causing damage...Cow milk if possible, even though milk man adds water its ok, at least chemical he will not add.
  • 3 month just take precaution , after certain age it will reduce. Most of the kids have these symptoms. Doctor will give symptomatic treatment.
12th Sept 2010:
Homeopathy works best, All the sufferings are now gone. I found one good homeopathy doctor. who explained me the whole cycle and took care.

21st Oct 2011:
Dr. Kennedy : 26530346

Its a small clinic and you may need to wait there for 20 min at least.
Time : All days 11:00 to 1:00 pm and 7:00 to 9:00 pm (Except Sunday) in evening.

This is a complex phenomenon when I think about it.

All the year we see some one or other constructing house / floor raise / redoing apartment work etc. People keep digging roads, Builders keep building , everywhere construction and noise is common scene. 

Pollination is bigger problem here. Its hell for allergic people.

Air Conditioner in office / Home 

itchy eyes, runny nose, recurring throat infection are just indicators of how screwed the ecosystem is. Its body's natural reaction.

Solution for grown up: Develop Immunity by means of meditation. By means of Sport. 

03-Feb-2017 - Effect of this Bangalore Weather on elders:

Breath shortness is one more problem if the infection stays longer and get to lungs. This device is good to measure Oxygen level in blood. Pulmonologist is next step you want to visit if these remedies are not helping. Dr. Srigiri is one of the best in that regard. But he is not magician. Have patience when you are waiting for your turn in waiting lobby it can take 2 hours in Bangalore hospital.
Learn Vipassana, Meditation helps to boost immunity.
If you are waking up in middle of night coughing suddenly and not able to sleep,Drink 1 hot cup water  sip-by-sip. Our body is miracle, we dont need medicine for every now and then.
