Suggest Treatment For Persistent Sneezing While Having Nasal Congestion

Posted on Fri, 18 Dec 2015

Question: Been sneezing a lot for 2 weeks now... not sure if its really bad allergies or a cold that is taking forever to go away... Its just clear mucus and been having lots of nasal congestion, especially in my left nostril. Since I've been sneezing so much , I have been getting little twinges and cramping in my lower left abdomen area, near my groin area after I sneeze or blow my nose a lot. Is this normal.. Its almost like a I pulled a muscle or strained a muscle in my lower abdomen/ groin area from sneezing and blowing my nose so much.

Thank you,
xxxxxxxxx
