Sir, I am suffering from redness and itching in the upper throat and possibly the upper food pipe for the last 6 months. I have taken many treatments but this problem is not cured. The STRAP TEST report as advised by the doctor found non pathogenic organisms grown on culture media and he said there is nothing abnormal, but this problem is recurring every 1 to 2 months. Please suggest what type of problem this is and which department I should consult. Is it Crohns disease?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Chronic throat irritation is unlikely to be Crohns. May be allergy, reflux, or post nasal drip. ENT consultation is ideal. Do the required endoscopy and allergy workup.

View allI am a college student and commonly sneeze 3 to 4 times every morning. About 9 months ago, I developed a facial skin problem that became red, swollen, and sometimes oozed yellow fluid. A doctor diagnosed me with eczema and prescribed medicines, which initially helped. However, when the medicines were changed, the problem worsened and spread to other parts of my body. I could not use the medicines for long because they were steroids. This went on for about 7 months. Later, my doctor suggested comprehensive allergy testing and advised stopping all medicines. After stopping, the allergy gradually reduced. The allergy test indicated sensitivity to house dust and cotton dust. Currently, my facial eczema is under control, but my eyes have become red. A doctor suggested it might be conjunctivitis, but they are unsure if it is allergy related. I have had allergic problems since childhood, but they have worsened over the past 9 months. Could you please explain what might be happening and how I can manage these recurring allergies and eye symptoms?

Sir, I have been struggling with cold allergy for months. If I miss my medication even for a day, I experience severe cold symptoms the next day, including sneezing about 14 to 20 times every 10 seconds. I have consulted multiple doctors but have not found a cure yet. My blood report shows an eosinophil count of 704 (normal range 40 to 440). Please suggest a better treatment option.
