How to cure relapsing fever in a young child?

Hi, I am the mother of a 21 month old child who has been suffering from febrile episodes every 20-30 days for exactly one year without any other symptoms, other than a high fever (39-40.5) for 6-8 days. The pediatrician claims it is relapsing fever as she does not respond to common antipyretics while she responds immediately to cortisone. We are now awaiting the results of the blood tests. I would like to have an opinion from a homeopath or nature-oriented doctor to know if there is a natural therapy to avoid having to continuously administer cortisone to the child. Thank you for your attention and for the help you will want to give us.

Hello, We should evaluate more things before indicating a natural treatment, constitution, diet, vaccines to which it has been subjected etc … To go to the cause of this problem. Fever is always beneficial for the body, as it triggers a series of natural antibiotics and leads to an active immune system that tries to expel or eradicate a problem of attack to it! As I have read more antipyretics and cortisone have been used which do not allow the great work of the immune system! It will certainly be advisable to support the immune system without suffocating anything! Greetings Ilaria Porta

Dear Madam, in order to have a clear picture of the febrile crises of your 21-month-old baby, it is necessary to have the results of the blood tests, which can first of all exclude any infectious diseases, which often give recurring fevers or any vitamin or blood deficiency situations or immune, all conditions that in various ways put the organism in a state of stress and therefore call for an abnormal response of the organism such as fever. Fever that is certainly an “alarm” signal, so to speak, or a call for attention, towards something that is “wrong” in the organism, in situations like these the Homeopathic Merdicina, in my opinion, can do a lot, therefore, given the age of the child, I would advise you to contact a colleague at homeopathic pediatrician in your area for a visit, who will be able to better frame the case and propose the most suitable homeopathic remedies for your situation.

Good morning lady, before giving you any advice it is worth seeing what the analyzes say. Once the result has been obtained, it is possible to have a clearer picture and understand how and if it is possible to proceed with natural methods. Recurrent fever could also correspond to a particularly reactive constitution rather than a fragile immune system. Meanwhile, in agreement with her doctor, a prescription of enzymes suitable for your child is useful to cleanse the intestine from the therapies in use. Let me know if you think and if you know a good naturopath or pediatrician who specializes in natural care, please contact him with confidence. Cinzia Zedda naturopath – writer

Hi, as already mentioned by colleagues, it is important to perform complete examinations including a throat swab, even if the child does not complain of throat discomfort, based on the results you can decide how to intervene and with what types of natural treatments. Surely for protection in any case the lactic ferments and water are used to maintain a good intestinal balance and protect it from any drug it might take. Sincerely
