Hello,
Welcome to HCM,

As you are having some allergic manifestations for more than a year, you should be very careful with the symptoms as it may be dangerous to the life. I would suggest her to undergo absolute eosinophil count (AEC) which will be raised in the allergic condition.

For the present symptoms you can give her Tab Montek LC which helps to control the symptoms, but it is temporary. She need to avoid the allergens to protect herself from getting these allergy symptoms.

I would suggest her to undergo skin prick test (SPT) to identify the type of allergen causing these symptoms and can prevent herself from exposing to these allergens. Otherwise she can be given immunotherapy either with subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) or sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT).
Thank you.
