  • Arsenicum Iodatum
    Constant desire to sneeze with irritation and tickling of the nose. Watery, irritating and excoriating discharge comes out the nose and runs down the back of the throat.

Worse with sneezing and dry, cold weather, windy and foggy weather and tobacco smoke. Worse from exertion and being indoors.

    Nasal discharge is extremely acrid and excoriating, making raw sores on the front of the nose and upper lip. (Allergies associated with the Arsenicum Iodatum  remedy produce irritation but do not produce sores.) The nose can be obstructed, causing the person to breathe through the mouth. There is pain over the top part of the nose, with large scabs often forming on the right side. The person constantly picks at the nose and lips until they bleed. The lips, roof of the mouth, and palate are often sore or raw and burning; the lips are also chapped. The corners of the mouth can become raw, chapped and cracked. Profuse saliva. The voice becomes hoarse, worse from overuse and talking a lot. The face may feel chapped, as if a cold wind were blowing on it.
