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?

I'm really worried about my IgE levels; they're at 1074 kUAL. My fingers get swollen in winter, and I'm starting to think I might have an allergy to cold temperatures. I've been taking Allegra 180 for two weeks, but my IgE levels haven't changed. With the COVID vaccine, I'm concerned about having a severe reaction. Do you think it's safe for me to get vaccinated?
