What Causes Sneezing And Wheezing During Night Time?

Hi,
Me and my wife are sufferring from sneezing and slight wheezing during night. We are perfectly alright in the morning. And our child who is 2 year old is having no issue. We start sneezing when we move to bed. Is there any chance that bed may be poluted with dust? And in washroom is having a leakage issue and the wall is slightly turned to black color. Also we use mosquito repellent liquids through out the night.
Please help me to get rid of sleepless nights.

Thanks & Regards

Allergist and Immunologist 's  Response
Hello.

Thank you for asking at HCM.

I went through your history and would like to make following suggestions to both of you:

1. In my opinion, you are spot on! All the three factors that you have mentioned can cause sneezing and wheezing.

2. Most common are - house dust mites, the most important source is bedsheets.

3. Indoor molds are another important causes - they origin from leakage and moist areas.

4. Mosquito repellent liquids may cause sneezing but not very commonly wheezing.

5. I would suggest both of you allergy testing for house dust mites and common indoor molds.

Depending upon results, an Allergist-Immunologist may prescribe you allergen specific immunotherapy which specifically works on your allergies.

6. I would also suggest you regular montelukast & levocetirizine before going to bed and to use salbutamol inhaler for wheezing on as-and0when-needed basis.

7. Please correct the leakage area and reduce humidity in bedroom by ensuring good ventilation & sunlight. I would also suggest you to wash in hot water and dry bedsheets every week.

Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you.

Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at HCM.

Wish both of you the best of the health.

Thank you & Regards.
