Hello, Welcome to HCM, Allergy is condition where our body immuno system hyper react to the substances which are not tolerated by the body. The procedure which you have undergone is to make your airway clear. Allergy as such cannot completely eliminated from the body but its effect can be brought down by immunotherapy either by sublingual immunotherapy or subcutaneous immunotherapy. Present symptoms may be due to the existing allergies in your body. Identify the allergen by undergoing skin prick test. Then you can take proper treatment. Thank you.
