HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern this could be chronic condition of allergy, the most important is the eosinophil the percentage of this need to be seen and if this found increased then that has to be managed accordingly, meanwhile for symptomatic relief you can take the "Tab Levocetrizine 10 mg three times in day" hope this information helps you take care and have good day.
