I'm having a hard time dealing with constant sneezing every time I walk into a place that's even a little chilly. My nose feels blocked despite not having a runny nose, and I know I have allergic rhinitis. I'm currently on Foracort, but it doesn't seem to be helping much with these symptoms. Could there be something else going on, or is there something different I should be trying?

I'm curious why I start sneezing whenever I have lemon water in the morning. Could there be a specific reason for this reaction? I'd love some insight into what's going on.

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

I've been having a running and itchy nose ever since I got back from the park this evening. I'm wondering if an Alaspan tablet would help with this. Is it really effective? Also, what's the right dose for someone like me, a 22-year-old guy?

it is a 10 mg

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.
