Sinus And Dust Allergy. Surgery Done. Is There Any Vaccination For Dust Allergy?
Hi I have have dust allergy and sinus.
in childhood i got a ball hit my nose and thus one side of nose was blocked.it used to swell and it was not allowing dust particles to go out etc...
thus I slowly developed the Sinus
and now I did operation in the age of 25+ years.
so feeling little better but I still feel some problem mostly in winter with a little breathing problem.
Doctor told dust allergy can't be cured.... :(
is it?
I heard about some vaccination
which will pass some controlled dust particles,mites to make a immunity to it and that can cure me for 10 years..
is it safe?
is there any other way I can be cure.and enjoy my life with ice cream,staying at ac room :(

Hi and thanks for using this forum.
i am so sorry to hear about what you have been experiencing.
1. Dust allergy cannot be cures. We can however minimise exposure this this allergene by avoiding it. This limit our scope of outdoors activities but it is the best option for now.
2. There is no vaccination against particles that have no living characteristic(s). At best this novel procedure is under evaluation and not yet validated to be used as of now.
My advise is, avoid dust exposure as much as possible.
Wish you good health.
