My 7 year old is snorting and sniffling constantly. Now this has come and gone. it occurs for about a month and then she stops for a little bit but then it comes back. Everyone once in a while she will turn her neck and cry and say she hurt her neck. it seems like she has a stiff neck. She has been to an allergist and she is allergic to pollen and that's it. I have been giving her Flovent through a spray for a dry cough but she really isn't coughing. The problem is her snorting and sniffling. I also took her to an ear, nose and throat doctor and he confirmed that everything is fine and that possibly it is a tick. But do ticks come and go? I don't want her on any steroids since it makes her hyper. She is also rubbing her eyes and says her eyes are sticky. Not sure what to do.
