Question

I'm struggling with nasal congestion and its making it kind of hard to breathe properly. Do you have any suggestions for home remedies that might help with this? Maybe something I can try out to ease the discomfort?

Your sneezing response to cold stimuli is known as "cold-induced sneezing" or "photic sneezing reflex." It's a relatively rare condition. To manage symptoms: - Avoid sudden exposure to cold temperatures - Wear protective gear (gloves, scarf) in cold weather - Use saline nasal sprays to moisturize nasal passages - Consider over-the-counter antihistamines or decongestants Consult a doctor or allergist for further guidance and diagnosis.
