        abstract = {Background: Rhinosinusitis is a frequently encountered inflammatory condition in the pediatric population, commonly associated with viral or bacterial infections and allergic predisposition. Conventional treatment often involves antibiotics, decongestants, and corticosteroids, which may lead to adverse effects and antibiotic resistance. Homoeopathy offers a safe, individualized, and holistic approach for managing rhinosinusitis in children.
Aim: To evaluate the effectiveness of individualized homoeopathic medicines in the treatment of rhinosinusitis in children.
Methods: A randomized interventional study was conducted on 50 pediatric patients diagnosed with rhinosinusitis, selected from the OPD of Sri Ganganagar Homoeopathic Medical College, Hospital and Research Institute, Rajasthan. Clinical assessment was carried out using the Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22) scale before and after treatment. Statistical analysis was performed using the paired t-test.
Results: The calculated t value was 9.80, which was greater than the tabulated value of 2.009 at a 5% level of significance (p = 0.00001), indicating a statistically significant improvement in symptoms following homoeopathic treatment.
Conclusion: Individualized homoeopathic treatment was found to be effective in managing rhinosinusitis in children. Sulphur was the most frequently indicated remedy, followed by Lycopodium clavatum, Lachesis, and Calcarea carbonica. Homoeopathy appears to be a safe and effective therapeutic option for pediatric rhinosinusitis.},
