Dr Brian Kaplan on Otitis Media, Glue ear, Tonsillitis, Recurrent respiratory infections.

Orthodox Treatment:

Severe cases may require antibiotics (if a bacteria can be shown to be causing the problem) and in some cases a tonsillectomy may be necessary though this operation has become far less ‘fashionable’ in recent years. In the great majority of cases an holistic or natural approach is the treatment of choice in these conditions.

Homeopathy:

These conditions comprise a huge part of the work load for most homeopathic doctors. This is because orthodox treatment often produces unsatisfactory results in the long term. I have received many referrals from GPs to treat children with these problems over the years and am very disappointed if I cannot help any particular case because most of these children do very well on homeopathy.
