I'm experiencing this unusual burning sensation all over my body, but there's no fever. My torso feels dry and a bit allergic, though it's not really itchy. Oddly enough, gently rubbing my torso seems to help. Along with this, my nose has been drippy, and my stomach bloated after eating rice and egg with some red chili flakes for breakfast. This all began yesterday morning. I woke up with my face feeling hot, and then it spread to my hands and feet. It's been like this since then. I'm 47 years old and can't figure out what kicked off these symptoms. The night before it all started, I had two shots of rum and prawns for dinner, which is unusual for me because I don't drink often and rarely eat seafood, particularly prawnsthe last time was like a year or two ago. What's going on with my body?

I'm having this issue where I keep sneezing every morning and it's been happening for months. I saw a doctor before and got some medications, but nothing's changed. It's been around six months now and I'm still stuck with this cold and sneezing problem. Could you suggest anything to help? I'm really tired of it and not sure what else to do.

Morning sneezing is mainly associated with allergic rhinitis.. avoid dusts and pollution.. regular change of pillow covers and bedsheets.. visit an ENT specialist for proper assessment..

I'm dealing with a runny nose that mostly acts up at night, making it hard for me to get any sleep. It seems to go away only when I take medication, but it keeps coming back, especially during winter and rainy seasons. Interestingly, I don't face this issue in summer. Do you have any advice on how I can manage this better?

That could be due to allergy, identify the triggering factor and avoid it, maintain healthy lifestyle.

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?
