Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM.
It takes few days to settle. Meanwhile you can take cetirizine one at night for 4 days. It will reduce allergic reaction. Also Take montelukast one daily for one month. Research has shown that it decreases the allergic symptoms considerably.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow
up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us.
Wishing you good health.
