I've noticed my eosinophil levels are higher than normal and I experienced some allergies recently. The symptoms have lessened, but I'm still dealing with an itchy sensation. How can I bring my eosinophil counts back to a normal range?

To reduce the eosinophil count and alleviate the itchy sensation, you can take over-the-counter antihistamines like Cetirizine (10mg once daily) or Loratadine (10mg once daily). Additionally, you can use a corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% to relieve itching. Make sure to avoid allergens that trigger your allergies and maintain good hygiene to prevent further allergic reactions. If symptoms persist, consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm having a hard time dealing with constant sneezing every time I walk into a place that's even a little chilly. My nose feels blocked despite not having a runny nose, and I know I have allergic rhinitis. I'm currently on Foracort, but it doesn't seem to be helping much with these symptoms. Could there be something else going on, or is there something different I should be trying?

continue foracort, start steam inhalation
