I'm really struggling with sneezing, a runny nose, and watery eyes, especially when the seasons change. Could this be a seasonal allergy? How can I manage these symptoms better?

View allI'm dealing with this annoying throat irritation followed by a dry cough that's been bothering me since last year. It seems to get better for a while, but then it just comes back. My local doctor mentioned it might be an allergy. I've been taking levocetirizine 5 mg and montelukast 10 mg, along with using a mometasone nasal spray for the past 5 days, but I'm not seeing any relief. It's quite frustrating. I also did some tests and my CRP came back negative, but my immunoglobulin serum IgE level is pretty high at 250. Could you guide me on what to do next? Is there something else I should be trying?
It seems like you are experiencing allergic symptoms in your throat and cough. Since you have already been taking Levocetirizine 5mg + Montelukast 10mg and Mometasone nasal spray with no relief, I would recommend adding a mucolytic and a cough suppressant to your treatment regimen. You can try taking Ambroxol 30mg twice daily for mucus clearance and Dextromethorphan 10mg for cough suppression as needed. Additionally, since your Immunoglobulin serum IgE level is high, you may benefit from adding a steroid inhaler like Fluticasone propionate for better control of your symptoms. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm kind of worried about my health stuff lately. My weight's at 84.3 kg and I've been having this chest discomfort for about two years now. Last year, I saw a pulmonologist and got some tests done like an X-ray, CBP, IGE serum, and PFT. Everything was normal except my IGE serum level, which was 432.2 IUml. The doctor prescribed me Tab.FM 24 to take every night, but I never ended up using it. Do you think I should start taking the tablet again if my IGE level turns out to be high? And what are the symptoms of having a high IGE level?
Patient is advised tab augmentin duo 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 .
