I'm 22 and recently had an allergy test done with an IGE result of 360. I'm curious and a bit worried if taking 500 mg of paracetamol can cause me to have hives or urticaria. Can you please help me understand this?

I'm really puzzled and a bit worried about some recent health changes. I never had asthma or anything related to it growing up, not until I turned 18. But after I had this pneumothorax incident, which luckily resolved on its own, I suddenly started showing asthmatic symptoms. I even had my blood tested and my IgE level was at 1500. Now I'm taking allergy shots. I'm confused because if this was asthma, shouldn't I have had symptoms since childhood? Plus, there's no family history of breathing issues. Why might this be happening now?

I've been struggling with this annoying sneezing problem that's related to allergies, and it's been coming and going for a while now. The other day, I went to a pharmacy, and the pharmacist gave me a tablet called okacet. I'm really curious about what this okacet tablet is actually used for and if it's going to help with my sneezing issue. Also, I'm a 35-year-old guy, so I'm wondering if it's safe for me to take?

yes you can take it

I'm a software engineer and I work in an air-conditioned office. I've been sneezing at least 23 times a day lately, and it's always in bursts of 12 sneezes. This is all pretty new to me, and I'm guessing it might have started since I joined the IT industry. What could be causing this sudden change, and how can I find some relief?

It sounds like your sneezing could be related to allergies triggered by indoor air quality, such as dust, air conditioning, or dry air commonly found in office environments. Using a humidifier, ensuring regular cleaning of the office, and considering antihistamines might help reduce the sneezing. If it persists, a consultation with an allergist could be beneficial.
