RE: Regarding lymph infection in a four year old

February 7, 2005

My daughter had similar symptoms. We used some Complex Homeopathic remedies

which are different than Classical Homeopathy in that they combine multiple

remedies including some emotional factors that tie into the disease/illness. We

used a lymph drain product and then targeted the cause of the inflammation

which was her gallbladder. She was eating lots of good fats however her body

wasn't processing them. We jumpstarted her gallbladder with some homeopathic

remedies and nutritional support. Each individual is different and needs

different homeopathic remedies, I've used completely different remedies for

gallbladder conditions based on the individual. I would find someone that does

muscle

testing and can come up with with particular products that will strengthen

and suppport your child, testing the lymph system along with various organs in

the body.

Here are a few websites to view that might give you some answers:

www.tropicaltraditions.com : this will help you study how coconut oil may help

contribute to the healing. Or, www.glyco.com/glycohealth to see how

glyconutritionals could help build her immune system to be able to fight the

infection.

My four-year-old has had a condition for the past several months

(perhaps going back as late as the end of October). Initially we

thought it was her ear. We noticed that her right ear (mainly the

lobe) was pinkish purple and swollen. We spent one week putting

garlic drops in her ear thinking that it was an internal problem with

the ear. After looking inside, however, I became convinced that the

ear itself was okay, and that perhaps it was a skin problem. I tried

rubbing essential oils on the area and began to notice that the

redness extended to the back of the ear. I also became aware that

the lymph node was hard and inflamed. All this while, my daughter

didn't complain about her ear hurting or bothering her. We have

since noticed that since the ear is feverish, she does rub and want

to itch it.

On December 24th we took my daughter to a homeopathic doctor. He

agreed that it was a localized infection of the lymph node. He ruled

out problems with the inner ear and also my fears of lymphoma.

Initially he used a beetle poultice which he hoped would draw the

infection out. We also cut back on dairy and sugar in her diet at

this time. When we returned to the doctor, he didn't see any

significant improvement and prescribed the self-blood treatment.

We religiously administered these drops for four weeks and still

didn't see any improvement. We haven't been back to the homeopath,

and I have been trying to see some improvement through high dosages

of herb tinctures (goldenseal/echincacea and Oregon grape fruit

combinations) gentle massage of the lymph.

The lymph directly below the ear is swollen to the size of a very

hard pea. The lymph in between her scapula and her clavicle is often

swollen as well. The lobe is so swollen that it, too, is now hard.

Any ideas that you have would be very helpful.

At the risk of offending someone, I'd say: take her to another doctor!

Infections like that are NOT something to mess around with, esp. if they

are spreading. There might be some underlying cause that is making her

immune system unable to fight it (like diet) but once the infection is

there, she may need antibiotics. It is very difficult to treat an

infection once it is under the skin otherwise. In kids the infections

seem to be able to get into the nerve tissues easier too, and you get

stuff like meningitis.

I'd love to live in a world where antibiotics are never necessary, but

we ain't there yet. My family is a whole lot healthier than they were,

and we don't get sick near as much, but I'm one of those folks who never

would have survived childhood without drugs.

I'm with you completely. Even though I spend much of my time grousing about

the ignorance of conventional medicine and the true cause of disease, there

is no question that MD's are miracle workers when confronted with acute

infection and broken pieces. I just spent 5 days laid out on my bed with

the worst virus I have ever had in my 43 years and when the fever hit 105

degrees I was thrilled to be sitting in front my doctor and having him

confirm by test that all I had was a virus and not some sort of other nasty

bacterial thing that needed treatment.

My experience is that doctors are generally good people who have powerful

knowledge in an incomplete paradigm.
