Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,

I have read your query with diligence. Thanks for posting the same. I am sorry about your allergy.

Yes, it can be symptom of allergic sinusitis. You need further evaluation for the same.

It would be wise to get ahead with an ENT specialist consultation, followed by sinus examination. Depending on the nature of the sinuses, we can plan a functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS), if required.

Hope this helps you.
