HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
You can consider allergy testing to see if there is a specific allergen that you are reacting towards.
If it can be identified then you can try to reduce your exposure and therefore your symptoms.
Allergy testing can be in the form of skin tests or skin prick testing.
If this is not an option then you would need to use allergy meds such as those mentioned, consistently to reduce your symptoms.
I hope this helps
