Allergist and Immunologist,  's  Response
Hello,

Thank you for asking at HCM.

I went through your history and would like to make suggestions for you as follows:

1. I would suggest you allergy testing for common air-borne allergens like house dust mites, molds, pollens, insect proteins, animal dander, etc. This will help you to identify the substances causing allergies to you as well as to know the measures to avoid them.

2. Based on allergy testing, an Allergist-Immunologist may prescribe you allergen specific immunotherapy which gradually works on immune system to improve allergy symptoms over a long duration.

3. For symptom control, I usually suggest my such patients levocetirizine + montelukast.

4. In general, please avoid exposure to dusts, smokes and air pollution as much as possible.

Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you.

Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at HCM.

Wish you the best of the health ahead.

Thank you & Regards.
