Allergist and Immunologist 's  Response
Hello,

Thank you for asking at HCM.

I went through your son's history and would like to know details about his symptoms life nose symptoms, sinus symptoms, skin symptoms, eye symptoms and asthma symptoms, aggravating factors, seasonal factors, etc.

At present, from your given history, I would like to make suggestions for him as follows:

1. Apart from medications that you are using, I would suggest him allergy testing for common air-borne allergens such as house dust mites, molds, pollens, insect proteins, animal dander, etc.

This will help you identify the substances causing him allergies as well as the measures to avoid them.

2. Based on allergy testing report, an Allergist-Immunologist may prescribe him allergen specific immunotherapy which works in immune system to gradually improve his allergy symptoms and would reduce requirements of other medications.

3. Regular breathing exercises and healthy diet rich in vitamins & minerals will improve his lung capacity and immunity gradually over a long run.

4. In general, please avoid exposure to dusts, smokes and air pollution as much as possible.

5. Alternative medicines like Ayurveda, Homeopathy, Herbal medicines, etc may be beneficial and may reduce medicine requirements gradually. I usually suggest my patients to consult an experienced alternative medicine practitioner for alternative treatment. However, please do not discontinue Montair and inhalers without consulting your allopathic doctor as sudden discontinuation can lead to worsening of symptoms.

In nutshell, instead of self-treatment, please consult allopathic doctor for inhalers and medicines and you can simultaneously also consult an alternative practitioner for alternative treatment.

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 ahead.

Thank you & Regards.
