Question

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.

Question

I'm really worried about my 14-year-old son's allergies. He's been coughing a lot throughout the year, and it seems like any change in the weather makes it worse. Ive noticed sometimes when he sleeps, there's a whistling sound coming from his nose. What could be causing this, and how can I help him feel better?

Question

I'm dealing with a runny nose that mostly acts up at night, making it hard for me to get any sleep. It seems to go away only when I take medication, but it keeps coming back, especially during winter and rainy seasons. Interestingly, I don't face this issue in summer. Do you have any advice on how I can manage this better?

Question

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.
