The tonsils are a pair of small almond-shaped mass of lymphatic tissue on either side of the throat. These structures act as a defense against infections.
Allergies are inappropriate or exaggerated reactions of the immune system to substances that, in the majority of people, cause no symptoms.

So how exactly does Homeopathy work? Homeopathy is based off of three simple concepts:
Concept 1: The body’s organs are all interdependent. When one organ is sick, the body’s chain of harmony is disturbed and manifests diseases. These problems can be seen similar to the domino effect; this is why instead of analyzing each organ separately, the whole body is analyzed. Example:In the disease Maxillary Sinusitis, pus in the sinuses cause pressure on the gums, spreading this bacteria to the gums and teeth and causing infection in multiple areas. Because there is one cause for both the Sinusitis and the gum infection (Gingivitis), Homeopathy gives one remedy to solve both problems.
Concept 2: Symptoms are similar or different, but there is going to be a connection between them. It is crucial to understand that for effective results. One symptom can be caused by multiple problems. Example: Breathlessness can be caused by Anemia, Asthma, anxiety, and allergic reactions. One problem can cause multiple symptoms. Example: Let us take the example of weakness. Eye muscle weakness causes poor eyesight, lung weakness causes breathlessness, heart muscle weakness causes palpitations, and mind weakness causes an inability to think and remember. By addressing the root cause, weakness, every organ in the body is strengthened. One remedy can solve multiple problems at once. This is also why one doctor is focusing on the body’s overall health is much more effective than having multiple doctors focusing on each organ separately. Concept 3: The body and mind are connected. A problem in one of these causes a problem in the other. Example:Migraines, acidity, ulcers, and hypertension are all psychosomatic, meaning caused or aggravated by a mental factor such as internal conflict or stress.
Every disease has two types of symptoms: common and uncommon. Common symptoms are symptoms that are found in most cases of the disease, and uncommon symptoms result from each person’s individual response. This is why remedies are individualized in Homeopathy. Example: Depending on the person’s body type, milk can cause a variety of problems: gas, itches, eczema, nasal congestion, and eye swelling. While milk is the cause, the person’s unique response to milk is the most important information for figuring out the right remedy.
