Breathing is a continuous second-by-second process, and it’s no wonder then that a blocked nose is as irritating as a medical condition can get. Blocked nose is a very common complaint that can affect a person of any age group. The nose can be partially or completely blocked, and it can be blocked on one side or both sides varying from case to case. A blocked nose can be attributed to various reasons. It can be caused by cold, flu for a week or two but if it persists for more long time then it could be from some other health conditions. First among these is nasal polyps (soft, non-cancerous growths in the nose), second it nasal allergies. Another reason can be a deviated nasal septum (DNS) in which there is a displacement of the wall separating the nostrils to one side. Further causes includs sinusitis (inflammation of tissue lining the paranasal sinuses) and hypertrophy of nasal turbinates (the enlargement of bony structures inside the nose). Enlarged adenoids (the enlargement of the tissue present at the junction of the back of the nose and throat) are an important cause of blocked nose in kids. The nose can also be blocked in isolation or in conjunction or alteration with nasal discharges. Some other symptoms may also attend like sneezing, headache, post nasal discharge, cough, loss of smell depending on the cause.
Homeopathy is a very effective mode of treatment for nasal blockage cases. Homeopathic medicines, which are made of natural substances are completely safe with no side effects, are best for the treatment of a blocked nose. They function on the core of the issue for effective cure in blocked nose. Simultaneously, symptoms like nasal discharge, sneezing, post nasal discharge, headache, cough, loss of smell are also cured. The instant reaction when a person has a blocked nose is to pop in over-the-counter pills or take a nasal spray / nasal decongestant, but relief with these is temporary. There can be a relapse even after you think you are out of the blocked nose phase. However, natural homeopathic remedies for blocked nose not only ensure relief from symptoms but also roots out the cause of the blocked nose.

My 10 year old has one of the sides of his nose blocked most of the time. It aggravates during the night and at times both nostrils are significantly blocked and I can see him having breathing difficulty and discomfort. Winds, cloudy and cold weather seem to affect him the most. B jain Omeo Allergy medicine works for him best. Unfortunately, it is not easily available where we live. Based on this medicine ingredients, do you have suggestions on what individual medicines in combination would work for his nose blockage that are easily available online?
Thanks in advance.
