I'm trying to manage my allergic rhinitis symptoms with just Montec LC without resorting to a corticosteroid nasal spray because I'm worried about the risk of glaucoma that comes with the spray. Is that even possible?

I'm noticing this issue for the second time now. Every time I eat a banana, I wake up the next day with an irritable throat, and it feels like my throat is narrowing. It's really uncomfortable and now it's starting to feel like there's something stuck, with the pain even going to the back of my chest. What should I do about this?

That could be allergic reaction,stop consuming Banana ,drink more warm water and take rest,if its becoming more worse visit nearest hospital immediately for help

I was recently diagnosed with allergic rhinitis and got some concerning lab results. My WBC count is 13,000 and my serum IgE levels shot up to 3,500, which I know is way above the normal range of 0-100. Plus, my absolute eosinophil count is at 1,040, and I've read online that such high IgE levels could indicate cancer or some other serious disease. Is this something I should be worried about? And is it possible to bring my IgE level down to normal with medication? How long would that typically take?

Elevated IgE levels, especially with allergic rhinitis, are usually a sign of an allergic response, not cancer. It's important to manage your allergies with medication, which can help lower IgE levels over time. The duration of improvement can vary, but with proper treatment, you should start seeing changes in a few weeks to months. Always follow up with your doctor for personalized care.
