hi,
you have treat allergy in step wise manner. if you have allergy only during 3-4 four months time then you should start with antihistamine tablets. see for the results if there is no improvement then you have to go to the next step that is nasal steroid sprays. you have to start steroid nasal spray 3-4 weeks before your symptoms start. it gives very good results.
if these sprays don not work then you have to under go allergy test, an immunologist will do skin prick test to find out your allergic to what all substances. once it is identified you will have to take immunotherapy. this i can assure will cure your allergy to up to 80-90 percent.
kindly go to physician he will start antihistamine tablets and nasal sprays for you. for allergy testing go to immunologist
thank you
