Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I HAVE AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH NASAL CONGESTION. I HAVE BEEN SKIN-TESTED, AND I AM TOLD I AM NOT ALLERGIC. MY CONDITION DOES SEEM WORSE IN SPRING AND SUMMER. OUTDOOR ACTIVITY SEEMS TO AGGRAVATE IT. I LIVE IN OKLAHOMA AND THE WIND BLOWS CONSTANTLY. I AM ON METOPROLOL FOR HYPERTENSION. I WAS HELPED BY ONE STEROID INJECTION, BUT A RECENT DOSE OF ANOTHER ONE SEEMS INEFFECTIVE.
Hello Dear. You might be having allergic rhinitis. Kindly get a blood test done. Complete blood count to detect eosinophils in blood. If there is high eosinophils you need to take a course of Tab hetrazan 3 times a day for 15 days. Also take tab mntec lc once a day for 15 days. It will bring down your allergy. You should be fine by then
With regards- Dr Sanjay Kini
