Allium cepa
Primarily associated with symptoms related to the common cold, Allium cepa is indicated for conditions involving profuse watery discharge from the nose and eyes.
1. Key Characteristics
Allium cepa is characterised by a specific type of nasal discharge - profuse, watery, and irritating. Individuals often experience burning, bland tears from the eyes accompanying the nasal symptoms.
2. Physical Symptoms
Individuals requiring Allium cepa present with classic symptoms of a common cold, such as a profuse, watery nasal discharge that irritates the nose and upper lip, often accompanied by frequent sneezing. They also suffer from burning, watery eyes, similar to the discharge from the nose.
3. Emotional and Mental Aspects
Emotionally, individuals needing Allium cepa may feel irritable or uncomfortable due to the continuous nasal discharge and eye symptoms.
4. Aggravations and Ameliorations
Symptoms worsen in warm rooms or heated environments and improve when in open air or in a cooler atmosphere.
5. Modalities
Allium cepa symptoms exhibit a specific pattern of aggravation in warm surroundings, intensifying the irritating nasal and eye symptoms. There might be an amelioration of symptoms when moving into cooler environments or being exposed to fresh air.
