Hello I get how scary it is when your 11-year-old is coughing non-stop, struggling to breathe, and has a runny nose. When a cough gets that bad, where they’re gasping for air, you gotta be super careful and gentle I can show you a safe and good way to handle it with Ayurveda. What Ayurveda Says What your son has looks like Vata-Kapha Kasa: –Runny nose → Kapha –Coughing a lot & trouble breathing → Vata –No thick stuff coming up → His airways are just irritated, not blocked Usually, it’s due to –A cold –Being out in the cold –Ice cream, cold drinks –Dust or allergies –His airways are just really sensitive right now, which is -making him cough so much. What We Want to Do –Make his airways feel better –Curb the coughing –Stop the runny nose –Keep it from turning into bronchitis Safe Ayurvedic treatment for Kids (11 years old) 1.Sitopaladi Churna ½ teaspoon with honey 3 times a day after eating → The best thing for a cough from a cold 2. Talisadi Churna ½ teaspoon with honey Two times a day → Stops the bad coughing and trouble breathing 3. Yashtimadhu (Mulethi) powder ¼ teaspoon in warm milk before bed → Helps his throat and airways heal 4 Draksharishta 5 ml + 5 ml water Two times a day after eating → Calms his breathing HOME REMEDIES(Really Important) Steam Once or twice a day with just water, or add a tiny pinch of ajwain DIET PLAN ❌AVOID –Ice cream –Cold water –Chocolates –Bakery stuff –Chips and fried food INCLUDE –Warm soups –Rice and dal –Turmeric milk –Only warm water Keep him: –Inside –Away from dust, fans, and AC –Warm at night This cough is from a virus and allergies – it’s not dangerous if we take care of it now. These Ayurvedic things will help his airways calm down and keep anything bad from happening. Hope your son feels better soon! Warm Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate
