I'm a bit worried because I took Norflox TZ on an empty stomach this morning, and about an hour later, I noticed that my lower lip started to swell slightly. I remembered a similar thing happened last year when I took Levofloxacin. I quickly took Allegra and stopped the Norflox TZ. Do you think I might be allergic to it?
The recurrence of lip swelling after taking Norflox TZ, similar to your previous reaction to Levofloxacin, suggests a possible allergy or hypersensitivity to fluoroquinolone antibiotics; it's essential to consult your doctor or an allergist to discuss the reactions and determine the best course of action for future antibiotic treatments, as they may recommend alternative antibiotics or allergy testing.

My nose tip has been itching really badly every morning. It's strange because it only happens in the morning, never at any other time of the day. Once I'm ready and about to leave for work, the itching starts, and it's really annoying. I can't seem to figure out why or what might be causing this. Any ideas?
Morning nose tip itching can be frustrating. Here are some possible causes: *Allergies* 1. *Dust mites*: Exposure to dust mites in your pillow or bedding. 2. *Pet allergies*: If you have pets, their dander might be causing the itch. *Environmental Factors* 1. *Dry air*: Low humidity in the morning can dry out your skin, causing itchiness. 2. *Cold weather*: If you live in a cold climate, the morning chill might be irritating your nose. *Skin Conditions* 1. *Seborrheic dermatitis*: A common skin condition that can cause itchiness and flakiness. 2. *Contact dermatitis*: Irritation from a new soap, moisturizer, or other product. *Other Possible Causes* 1. *Nose picking or rubbing*: Unconscious habits can cause irritation and itchiness. 2. *Nutritional deficiencies*: Lack of essential nutrients like vitamin B7 (biotin) or omega-3 fatty acids. To alleviate the itch, try: 1. Applying a gentle moisturizer to your nose tip. 2. Using a humidifier to add moisture to the air. 3. Avoiding scratching or rubbing your nose. 4. Keeping your bedroom clean and dust-free.
