Whats The Cause And Cure For Itching In The Right Nostril, Sneezing A Day After Foot Surgery?
I had foot surgery yesterday and since returning home I have an itching sensation in my right nostril which is causing some sneezing and a runny nose (just on the right side). O you have any idea what may have caused this, and if so, does it generally remedy itself? Thanks
The symptoms as mentioned in your post suggest that you might be having Allergic rhinitis. Examination of the nasal cavity using a nasal endoscope will be helpful in helpful to rule out any pathological cause for the symptoms.
Management includes: 1.Antihistamine preparations like Allegra for symptomatic relief. 2. Montelukast preparations- used as a maintenance therapy to relieve symptoms of seasonal allergies. 3. A course of antibiotics may be taken to prevent secondary bacterial attack. 4. Maintain adequate hydration & take a healthy balance diet. 5. Also make sure that you are well protected from cold, dust & other allergens.
