I'm really worried about this allergic problem I've been dealing with for the last two years. I keep getting short of breath, there's this whistling sound when I breathe, plus I've got a runny nose, a cough, and sometimes even a fever. Montek LC tablets do help, but as soon as I stop taking them, all these symptoms come back within a day or two. What should I do? Can you suggest anything that'll give me longer-lasting relief?

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?

I'm dealing with a dust allergy and have been using this nasal spray called flublock. I'm wondering if I can switch to using Naselin nasal spray instead. Do they work the same way, and is one of them gentler on the nose than the other?
