Question 1

I've been noticing that whenever I touch something colder than the usual temperature, I start to sneeze. It's also happening with the early morning breeze sometimes, giving me that sneezing sensation. Is this something I should be concerned about or is it just a common reaction?

Accepted Answer

Chronic cold and cough can be frustrating.

Considering your allergy-like symptoms, possible causes include:

- Allergies (dust, pollen, pet dander)
- Environmental factors (pollution, tobacco smoke)
- Sinusitis or respiratory infections

For relief, try:

- Antihistamines (e.g., cetirizine, loratadine)
- Decongestants (e.g., pseudoephedrine)
- Nasal sprays (e.g., saline, oxymetazoline)
- Drinking plenty of fluids
- Using a humidifier

Consult a doctor or allergist to determine the underlying cause and receive personalized guidance.

Question 2

I've been struggling with breathing issues and recently found out my IgE level is 240, but I read it's meant to be between 0 and 100. Could this be causing my breathing problems? Is there anything I should be worried about or check into further?

Accepted Answer

Question 3

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?

Accepted Answer

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.

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..
