Age : 5 years

Gender : Male

Complain : Cold , Cough and fever

Interaction : The mother of the child narrated that her son is going through a cold, cough and fever for a day and has been extremely uneasy with the situation. It's wasn't something to be worried about but as he doesn't fall sick often; he doesn't know how to handle the situation. The impatience to get past the sickness was making him cranky.
He kept insisting on meeting a doctor and was hell-bent on recovering soon. A few rounds of warm water were given as he developed a throat pain, but the child seemed too uneasy and therefore the mother decided to get medical consultation.

As the impatience factor was taken into consideration and therefore, Chamomilla 30 single dose was prescribed.

Age : 8 years

Gender : Female

Complain : Recurrent Boils

Interaction : The parents explained that they had been through a number of antibiotics but the boils kept appearing all over again each time the dosage was complete. The child never complained but the parents would realise that the boils were extremely painful and the parents couldn't see their child suffering any longer. Her mother tried to discharge the puss by squeezing it out but the pain was excruciating.
The girl seemed to have accepted the boils as a part of her and she resorted to humour them herself. Despite the pain she was going through, she kept being a happy child. By now, the parents were tired of excessive antibiotics that she was consuming for 6 months.
