I'm dealing with this allergy that's causing rashes all over my body. I've been taking cetirizine, but I'm not sure if its enough. Is there anything else I should be doing? Could this be a sign of something more serious, or just a typical allergic reaction? Id really appreciate your guidance on this.

I'm noticing that my eosinophil levels are pretty high, and I seem to be really allergic to dust and cold weather. It's like clockwork, every time the weather changes, I start having issues. Could this be related to those high eosinophil levels? Should I be concerned or do something specific about it? Looking for some guidance on what steps might help manage these flare-ups.

start taking precautions like avoid cold weather, wear mask in that season

I'm dealing with allergic rhinitis and it's really affecting my sleep. I feel breathless and in the mornings, I'm either sneezing nonstop or constantly coughing. I'm trying to figure out if it's better to take a monticope tablet at night or use an esiflo 125 inhaler with two puffs before bed. What do you think would be more effective for long-term relief?

Patient is advised tab augmentin 625 mg ,orally, thrice daily for 7 days, tab levocetrizine 10 mg bedtime for 5 days and syrup salbutamol 10 ml thrice dailly for 7 days .

I'm a bit concerned about my high IgE level, which is around 900 right now. I heard it might be connected to some sort of food allergy. Can you explain what an overreactive immune system means in this context and how food becomes an allergen leading to histamine release? Is there something specific I should be doing or avoiding?
