Running nose allergy sympthoms
Question:
It is 5.00 in the morning and I have been woken up because something has irritated my nose, which now feels swollen and is starting to run. I am on medication everyday for it, but now that it is May I am getting this at least once a week despite medication. I don't get itchy eyes or anything else associated with hay fever and I don't really think this is what it is, it only effects my nose which first feels like the passages are swelling and then runs continuously until I am able to get to sleep, nothing will stop it once it starts. I can literally tilt my head forward and a watery substance will just drip out of it non stop. It becomes so sore after a full day having to keep wiping my nose and is utterly exhausting. My day is ruined if it starts. I have this all year round but it seems to have gotten worse just lately. Anyone else suffer from this or know what it might be? My doc had a little check for pollops and couldn't see any.
Answers:
1. i used to have terrible allergies too. but thankfully i found a solution. i am now using a betti neti pot. its a very simple process with NO side effects besides breathing clearly haha. medications just cover up the problem, they dont fix it. its like brushing your teeth versus eating a breath mint. covers the bad breath but doesnt kill the problem i dont use plastic ones though because the chemicals in the plastic eventually break down and cause more problems. go with ceramic made netis. i have a betti pot and it works wonders. feel better!
2. Its absolutely miserable this year! What medication are you taking? Likely its an anti-allergy type drug...an antihistamine. You need to tell your doctor its not working enough to start out with. I combine an claritin (allergy pill) with sudafed, a decongestant that helps dry out my nose and eyes a bit. Avoid being outside for long if at all. Keep the windows shut and even better, run the air conditioner (it has a filter) or air purifier. Otherwise, just keep surviving it will end soon (I HOPE!).
Just a cold or allergy?
Question:
Since yesterday, I feel really congested, Im sneezing a lot and my eyes are really watery. I had the flu a while back and Im fully recovered from it but then this happened. Is it just a cold or could it be allergies?
Answers:
1. As it is spring and there is a season of pollens so mostly you have allergic conditions like hay fever you need to take Antihistamine tablets ,you can buy it over the counter in any pharmacy.
2. It could be a reaction to some drug you took for the fever. If the symptoms persists check with your doctor as it could turn serious.
3. Get a blood test for increased histamine levels.
Seasonal allergy natural treatment methods
Over 22 million people in the USA suffer from seasonal allergies. Manifestations of it show starting from the beginning of spring and remain until the beginning of winter. If it’s your case too, you may be affected during this period as well. To make it worse, is that conventional doctors do not have enough understanding of this group of diseases, consequently, there is no proper treatment too.
Allergy happens when one’s immune system shows too strong reaction to such substances, as blossom dust, herbs, airborne fungi, as well as some nutrition products and beauty preparations. Currently there exist more than 60000 chemical substances, and each year about 500 ones appear, due to what our immunity has to react to a lot of biochemical matters. When the body meets some allergen for the first time, it tries to resist and our labrocytes generate histamine, an inflammatory substance. This reaction to allergens causes such wide-spread symptoms as rhinitis and running eyes and makes us sneeze.
