Allergist and Immunologist 's  Response
Hello.

Thank you for asking at HCM.

I went through your history and I would like to make following suggestions to you:

1. Were I treating you, if Odimont-LC is not giving you satisfactory relief, I would prescribe you inhaled corticoteroids nasal spray (mometasone or fluticasone propionate) for 1-2 weeks.

2. I would also suggest you daily nasal irrigation with nasal saline sprays and steam inhalation (please be cautious to avoid burns) regularly. This will hasten your recovery process.

3. Personally I would suggest you allergy testing which may help you identify the substances you may be allergic to and also to know how to avoid them. An Allergist-Immunologist may advise you specific allergen immunotherapy depending on results of allergy testing.

Specific allergen immunotherapy works on immune system to improve allergy symptoms which can eliminate symptoms for long time.

4. Please try to avoid exposure to dusts, smokes and air pollution as much as possible.

5. A healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals (adequate amounts of green leafy vegetables, fruits, sprouts, etc) will help you in a long run.

Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you.

Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at HCM.

Wish you the best of the health.

Thank you & Regards.
