I've been dealing with sudden sneezes and itchy eyes for the past year. It always seems to come back after the meds wear off. I'm a bit concerned and curious about why this keeps happening. Is there something more I should be doing, or is it just allergies acting up?

A small cut in the uvula can be painful.
Gas and acidity might be contributing factors.
Consult a doctor or an ENT specialist for proper evaluation.
In the meantime:
- Gargle with warm salt water
- Avoid spicy, acidic, or sharp foods
- Try antacids like Tums, Rolaids, or Mylanta
Do not self-medicate. A professional diagnosis will guide appropriate treatment.

View allI'm curious about what's going on with my health. I've been experiencing watery eyes, a runny and stuffed nose, body aches, an itchy throat and nose, and headaches that all come on suddenly. I usually take cetirizine, and it seems to clear up these symptoms within a day. But the problem is they keep coming back every couple of weeks or even sooner. Plus, I end up sneezing like 60 to 70 times in a day, which is just exhausting. And these really intense headaches are happening every other day too. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

I've been dealing with a persistent cough for months now, alongside sneezing and a runny nose. Initially, I thought it was just a regular cold, but a blood test revealed it's a dust allergy. I was prescribed histafree tablets, which worked for a while, but once I stopped, my symptoms came back. I've seen another doctor who told me theres a nasal allergy leading to a mild airway blockage and wheezing, so now I'm using an inhaler and telecast f tablets. Its been 20 days, and while the sneezing has gotten better, the cough is still sticking around. Is continuing with the inhaler advisable? I'm trying to figure out the best way to tackle this. Any insights?
