Allergist and Immunologist 's  Response
Hello Masooma Faridoon,

Thank you for asking at HCM.

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

1. Sinus and asthma are many times linked and sinus can aggravate asthma. So It is important for you to control both sinus and asthma.

2. Were I treating you, I would suggest you daily montelukast and an antihistamine like cetirizine or fexofenadine for upper airway disease (rhinitis and sinus).

I would also suggest you regular steam inhalation (please be cautious to avoid burns) and daily nasal irrigation with saline sprays which will also help.

3. For asthma, I would suggest you inhalers like budesonide-formoterol for regular use and salbutamol/levosalbutamol inhalers for as-and-when-needed use for asthma symptoms.

4. I would suggest you allergy testing which will help you identifying the substances causing troubles to you. Avoidance of the substances causing allergies is the best strategy for managing allergies.

Based on allergy testing, an Allergist-Immunolgist may prescribe you immunotherapy which will work on your immune system to gradually improve your allergy symptoms.

5. Regular breathing exercises and a diet rich in vitamins & minerals (adequate amounts of green leafy vegetables, fruits, etc) will also improve your lung capacity and immunity respectively gradually.

6. Please avoid exposure to dusts, smokes, fumes and air pollution as much as possible.

Regarding treatment of sinus/asthma in India, there are many allergists in India.

Also, Ayurvedic treatments are available in many parts of India which can be very helpful asthma, along with conventional medications.

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.
