How To Treat Nasal Congestion And Running Nose?

Hello. My nose runs a lot due to my allergies. Usually I end up with boogers always in my nose which is really embarrassing to have them hang in front of people. Not to mention that sometimes my nose gets so clogged that I can barely breathe. Is there any way to prevent this or slow down the mucus production so I can breathe easy again?

Hi,
I usually prescribe Fluticasone nasal sprays for one to two months to my patients with chronic rhinitis and also add on Tab Montelukast at night for 10 to 15 days. Most patients usually respond to these medicines. You can try the same and tell us whether it helps.
Take care,
