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?

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.

I am suffering from runny nose and continuous sneezing for the past one and a half years. I consulted an ENT doctor, and he gave me Monticope tablets, which I took for a year. If I stop taking the tablets, the symptoms come back. I do not know what to do to stop this. I do not know how long I have to continue the medication. I went to another doctor, a pulmonary specialist, who gave me Odimont and advised a complete blood test. I found out I have vitamin D3 deficiency. He gave me vitamin D shots for one month and a nasal spray. He stopped the tablets from today, and I do not know whether this treatment will work. Please give me a suggestion?

I am having an itching problem on the entire body with no rashes or red marks. The itching feels internal and when I take a Citrizen tablet it subsides temporarily but reappears, about twice a week. I have been suffering from this problem for the past 6 to 7 months and consulted a dermatologist who suggested medicines like Allegra 120 and some multivitamin syrup after conducting blood and urine tests. He told me there is no problem in the blood and urine reports.
