Hello,

Based on the fact that you have both the same symptoms it seems like an allergy.

I suggest you to take antihistamines to relieve the symptoms.

You may also try a fast-acting relief inhaler, such as albuterol (Ventolin).

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
