For a child experiencing frequent morning sneezing, recurring dry cough, and occasional wheezing, Ayurveda suggests a gentle yet effective approach that balances Kapha and strengthens respiratory health. Children, particularly those with a history of respiratory issues like adenoids, often have sensitive respiratory systems. In this case, Ayurvedic remedies and lifestyle modifications can help reduce these symptoms and build immunity over time.
A key approach is to keep the respiratory channels clear and prevent mucus buildup, which often aggravates symptoms like sneezing and wheezing. Herbs such as Tulsi (holy basil), Vasa (Malabar nut), and Pippali (long pepper) are very beneficial. Tulsi tea or mild Tulsi extracts, suitable for children, can help relieve morning sneezing and soothe the respiratory tract. You may also consider Sitopaladi Churna, a gentle Ayurvedic formulation, which can be given with a little honey (if the child is not allergic) to soothe dry cough and clear any congestion.
Ensure that your child stays warm, especially in the mornings and evenings, as cold exposure can increase Kapha and trigger sneezing. You can also apply warm sesame oil to the chest and back to keep the respiratory tract warm and support breathing. Simple steam inhalation with a few drops of eucalyptus or camphor oil can be useful in reducing nasal congestion and preventing wheezing.
Encouraging warm, light, and easy-to-digest foods, especially during the colder months, can also support lung health. Avoid cold and heavy foods, particularly dairy products, which can increase Kapha and mucus production. With consistent Ayurvedic care and lifestyle adjustments, your child’s respiratory health can gradually improve.

Morning sneezing and those monthly symptoms—ugh, I feel for your little one. It's like they can just zap their energy and make you worry. Since he's had adenoid surgery, it's clear this isn't a simple fix, but there are ways to help manage things, Ayurvedic-style.
First things first, morning sneezes might indicate some kind of Kapha imbalance. Now, Kapha does love the morning hour, sticking around like an unwelcome guest. Consider starting his day with a bit of warm water; not cold stuff, it just aggravates things more. Maybe add a slice of ginger to make it interesting. You've got to get that agni, or digestive fire, awake and working smoothly, you know?
For the coughing and wheezing, turmeric is such a gem. Maybe a small pinch (keep it small for kiddos) with warm milk before bed could help. Turmeric has those lovely anti-inflammatory qualities—really a friend of the airways. Add a touch of honey once it cools down. Honey's soothing and great for a dry cough but avoid honey if it's been heated.
Diet’s a big player too. Try keeping dairy limited for a bit, especially in the evening, since it can lead to extra Kapha and make mornings worse. Go for lighter meals—clear soups and stews can be nourishing but not too heavy.
Breathing exercises like pranayama in a simple way. A game of blowing bubbles can turn into a breath-awareness session, fun plus relaxing!
And do keep an eye out for allergens—dust in his room or stuffed toys can sneak up and trigger symptoms. Regularly cleaning those might help too.
Most importantly, if his wheezing gets worse or his breathing is troubling, don't sit around, reach out to your doc immediately. Always keep safety first and Ayurveda to gently support his system. Hope this gets you on the right path!
