Can I get the Covaxin vaccine if I have my asthma managed with inhalers and a high IgE level around 4000, but I don't have any other health issues? I'm just a bit unsure because of my IgE levels.

I'm allergic to paracetamol and usually end up with itching and rashes when I take it. Could you suggest any alternative for when I have a headache or a fever?

I've been dealing with really high IGE levels, around 472, and the antihistamines I've tried only help a bit with my allergy symptoms, but they don't seem to get rid of them completely. I got an allergy test done and found out I'm allergic to dust mites, tomato, egg, fish, ginger, and a bunch of other things. I do my best to avoid these, but I've also got eczema on a few fingers, which started after using a rubber padded mouse too much. It's super stubborn and won't go away. Recently, I've noticed my eyes get really red and itchy, especially over the past couple of weeks, making it hard to see at night while driving. Do you think homeopathy might help with any of this?

My mom has been dealing with this chronic dry cough, and she's constantly clearing her throat. She's not experiencing any wheezing or breathing issues. It lasts for about 12 weeks before it disappears, but the cough isn't frequent and usually vanishes for 2 weeks and then doesn't show up for another 12 months. I'm getting worried and wondering if it could be something serious or possibly related to allergies?
