Question 1

My nose tip has been itching really badly every morning. It's strange because it only happens in the morning, never at any other time of the day. Once I'm ready and about to leave for work, the itching starts, and it's really annoying. I can't seem to figure out why or what might be causing this. Any ideas?

Accepted Answer

Morning nose tip itching can be frustrating. Here are some possible causes:

*Allergies*

1. *Dust mites*: Exposure to dust mites in your pillow or bedding.
2. *Pet allergies*: If you have pets, their dander might be causing the itch.

*Environmental Factors*

1. *Dry air*: Low humidity in the morning can dry out your skin, causing itchiness.
2. *Cold weather*: If you live in a cold climate, the morning chill might be irritating your nose.

*Skin Conditions*

1. *Seborrheic dermatitis*: A common skin condition that can cause itchiness and flakiness.
2. *Contact dermatitis*: Irritation from a new soap, moisturizer, or other product.

*Other Possible Causes*

1. *Nose picking or rubbing*: Unconscious habits can cause irritation and itchiness.
2. *Nutritional deficiencies*: Lack of essential nutrients like vitamin B7 (biotin) or omega-3 fatty acids.

To alleviate the itch, try:

1. Applying a gentle moisturizer to your nose tip.
2. Using a humidifier to add moisture to the air.
3. Avoiding scratching or rubbing your nose.
4. Keeping your bedroom clean and dust-free.

Question 2

I've been dealing with sudden sneezes and itchy eyes for the past year. It always seems to come back after the meds wear off. I'm a bit concerned and curious about why this keeps happening. Is there something more I should be doing, or is it just allergies acting up?

Accepted Answer

A small cut in the uvula can be painful.

Gas and acidity might be contributing factors.

Consult a doctor or an ENT specialist for proper evaluation.

In the meantime:

- Gargle with warm salt water
- Avoid spicy, acidic, or sharp foods
- Try antacids like Tums, Rolaids, or Mylanta

Do not self-medicate. A professional diagnosis will guide appropriate treatment.

Question 3

I'm trying to understand what it means to have a serum IgE total of 1575.6 KIUL. Is that considered really high? Should I be worried? Also, are there any ways to bring it down naturally, maybe with some home remedies? I'm just really curious and a bit concerned about what this could mean for my health.

Accepted Answer

it is due to allergy

it might be due to some infection, allergy, if you have all other functions normal then don't worry
