| Imagine yourself in a warm stuffy room slicing
strong onions, then think of the last time you went bicycling through a sea of pollen filled goldenrod (or whatever triggers your hay fever). Any difference except that one was more fun? Though irritating to the eyes, the
tears usually don't burn, but if you chop long enough, the nose will burn and run - that's Allium cepa. Whether you get a Spring cold or a bout of hay fever, Allium cepa can bring great relief when burning watery nasal
discharge makes the upper lip feel raw, and bland tears may stream down the
cheeks, especially in damp cold weather. A nasty headache often starts soon
after the nose and eyes start flowing, which may be followed by a hacking cough, hoarseness and a raw sore throat that sends pain to the ears on
swallowing. Though cold air makes their symptoms worse, people needing
Allium cepa hate warm stuffy rooms. Oddly enough, its best patients will
even crave a raw onion now and then. |
