I've been dealing with a constant cough for the past five months, and a specialist I saw said it's due to allergies. He gave me some medicine and told me it would go away eventually, but it hasn't seemed to improve. What could be going on? Is there something else I should be considering or asking about?

I've been having a running and itchy nose ever since I got back from the park this evening. I'm wondering if an Alaspan tablet would help with this. Is it really effective? Also, what's the right dose for someone like me, a 22-year-old guy?

it is a 10 mg

I've been struggling with breathing issues for the past couple of months and my doctor mentioned it's due to allergies from things like apple, banana, milk, and even coconut. He prescribed me something called a histoglob injection, with a schedule of weekly injections, then a break, and then more weekly doses. I'm really concerned because this is all new to me, and I'm not sure about the dosage or possible side effects. Can you explain what I might experience with this injection?

No need to worry,you are receiving right treatment follow your doctor advice and avoid triggering factors also consume healthy food
