I am a college student and commonly sneeze 3 to 4 times every morning. About 9 months ago, I developed a facial skin problem that became red, swollen, and sometimes oozed yellow fluid. A doctor diagnosed me with eczema and prescribed medicines, which initially helped. However, when the medicines were changed, the problem worsened and spread to other parts of my body. I could not use the medicines for long because they were steroids. This went on for about 7 months. Later, my doctor suggested comprehensive allergy testing and advised stopping all medicines. After stopping, the allergy gradually reduced. The allergy test indicated sensitivity to house dust and cotton dust. Currently, my facial eczema is under control, but my eyes have become red. A doctor suggested it might be conjunctivitis, but they are unsure if it is allergy related. I have had allergic problems since childhood, but they have worsened over the past 9 months. Could you please explain what might be happening and how I can manage these recurring allergies and eye symptoms?

Likely allergic conjunctivitis and eczema triggered by allergens. Continue avoiding known triggers. Use non steroid allergy drops and consult allergist.

My nephew has skin allergies, and I have attached a test report from a year ago. Recently, he has been experiencing rapid weight gain, about 4 kg in the last 1.5 months. Could this be related to his allergies or something else?

Sir, I have been struggling with cold allergy for months. If I miss my medication even for a day, I experience severe cold symptoms the next day, including sneezing about 14 to 20 times every 10 seconds. I have consulted multiple doctors but have not found a cure yet. My blood report shows an eosinophil count of 704 (normal range 40 to 440). Please suggest a better treatment option.
