Asked for Male, 31 years old from Bangalore

I get frequent cold, runny nose and sneezing. Usually starts in the morning and lasts till noon. If I take a cetrizine it gets controlled in an hour or two. At local clinic doctor prescribed a stronger dose of levocetirizine for a week, after this medication cold got controlled for a week and then it re started to appear in regular frequency. This is happening since almost an year. I tried strict diet control, nose mask, home remedies, taking steam bath, but they dint help in long term. Please suggest.

Its Allergic Rhinitis. No simple cure for it. Avoidance of allergen, change of geographic locations and some times age leads to remission. Rarely Immunotherapy is recommended.

Asked for male, 27 years old from Navi Mumbai

I was not able to get a flu shot this year. I used to rarely get sick in the past few years (5 years or so). Anyhow, I keep getting a cold (runyn nose with greenish mucus, no fewer or aches) every two weeks. The first time in Oct, then in Nov I did not go to a doctor and just did home remedies. When I got sick again in Dec I went to the docs and got penicillin, 500g 3 times a day for 10 days. I completed the course. But here I am two weeks later and have a stuffed nose again. I'm planning to go to the doc again and have a appointment later in week, however was curious should I be looking for something beyond a cold. I also have allergies, but only in spring due to pollen, could these be allergies, or maybe allergies that end up giving me a nasal infection.

You are infected with allergic rhinitis, which will appear when there is change of climate or weather, so you have to check which will affect you, whether it is food or something else, by avoiding those circumstances you will be fine otherwise you have to face this type of symptoms 2 or 3 times a year.

Health Query

Female age: 18 height: 5’7 weight: 65-67 kg on 26 june 2022 I threw up blood for the first time (fresh blood and just containing blood, no sort of fluid but only fresh red blood) within some minutes I got severe chest pain and it was unbearable kept throwing since that day to this day. I was admitted to the emergency room they told me it happens sometimes so they let me go. At the start I used to throw up around 7-11 times in a day, I was admitted in the hospital again. The doctors thought it would be a tear so they started giving me medicines for that. My blood tests showed that I had blood deficiency and a bit of inflammation, I got almost all tests done and the doctor could’t catch the cause for all this. I did an endoscopy and they diagnosed me with mild gastritis but nothing that severe that would cause me bleeding. The doctors recommended me to get a chest xray, they had their doubts about my lungs so they started treating me with medicines for that. The medicines didn’t help and it didn’t stop my bleeding. I then went to an ent and he did my nose and throat endoscopy, he diagnosed me with a scratched throat and said it was probably because of that that I was bleeding. The ent gave me another course of medicines and they still did not help me any way. After that the doctors had doubt that I may have blood cancer but all the tests for that were clear, then there were doubts about liver problems but my liver was healthy as well. So they kept on treating me for problems within my lungs, I stopped taking those medicines and iv lines cause they did not work. My doctors told me they had no idea what was wrong with me and they were’t even sure if they had made the right diagnosis. Since that I have not went to a doctor nor am I taking my medications anymore. Symptoms:⁃ throwing up blood 2-4 times a day ⁃difficulty breathing ⁃chest pain ⁃dizziness and fatigue ⁃body pain⁃stomachache ⁃difficulty swallowing and eating ⁃headaches ⁃nausea medical history:⁃march 2019, left side brain hemorrhage things that make it worse -eating meat ⁃eating spicy food ⁃exhaustion ⁃working too much (playing, running, walking for a bit too long, etc) ⁃stress ⁃high altitudes type of pain:- sharp pain right in the middle of my chest (feels like a pointy nerve pain, that's the best I can explain)

My 6 year old daughter is suffering from wheezing and cough. On and off since last 2 years. She was absolutely fine during summer months and nebulization was not required but condition worsened during winters in delhi. Doctors have diagnosed it as allergic bronchitis. She is been given budesal 0.5 and salbair 0.31 and 5 ml montair syrup her conditions improves a lot after nebulization. Now the doctor has advised to give budecort inhaler 2 puffs twice a day and she is taking it. Her allergy panel test is done and ige was 10. She has been advised to stay from dust, moulds, cold food and air. Pls advise if the paediatrician has given the right treatment? Are the inhalers safe without any side effects. Will the child get dependent on inhalers? Can steroids slow the growth (height/weight)? For how long are the inhalers required? Any food restrictions like junk food?

Asked for female, 34 years old from Bangalore

I delivered my baby 5 weeks ago and is now a breastfeeding mother. During pregnancy I had slight stuffy nose, but it led to severe nasal congestion and post nasal drip after 2-3 episodes of acid reflux while sleeping in the night. I am eating montair fx and using isotonic saline spray to alleviate the symptoms. Please advise if I can continue with montair fx in breastfeeding and how many days should I eat to get relief. I did nasal endoscopy also and the reports were normal and there was only inflammation of nasal passages which the doctor suggested could be from pregnancy rhinitis or allergic rhinitis or non allergic rhinitis or inflammation from acid reflux. It is getting better, but what can I do to find quick relief.

Dr. X S Marak88%(12 ratings)

You can start other nasal spray. There is no significant evidence on fexofenadine + monteleukast effects on breastfeeding and baby.

This could be a sign of respiratory issues. Remedies like bryonia and spongia tosta may offer relief, but immediate medical evaluation is necessary to rule out conditions like asthma or pulmonary infections.
