I'm noticing that my eosinophil levels are pretty high, and I seem to be really allergic to dust and cold weather. It's like clockwork, every time the weather changes, I start having issues. Could this be related to those high eosinophil levels? Should I be concerned or do something specific about it? Looking for some guidance on what steps might help manage these flare-ups.

I'm allergic to a lot of things, and usually, it starts with a stuffed-up nose, then my throat gets sore, and I get chest congestion along with a dry, whooping cough. Sometimes I take steam inhalation, breathing it in through my nose and mouth, but I'm wondering if that could be harmful in any way? Lately, I've also been feeling some chest tightness along with the dry cough and it's starting to worry me. Could you help me understand if the steam is safe or if there's anything else I should be concerned about?
If you are experiencing nose congestion, sore throat, chest congestion, and dry whooping cough, it sounds like you may be suffering from allergic rhinitis and possibly bronchitis. Steam inhalation can actually be helpful in relieving your symptoms. You can try using a steam inhaler with plain water or adding a few drops of eucalyptus oil for added benefit. This can help to clear your nasal passages and soothe your throat. For your chest tightness and dry cough, you can also consider using an over-the-counter cough syrup containing dextromethorphan to help suppress the cough. Additionally, an antihistamine like loratadine can help with your allergies. Remember to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging for these medications. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to consult with a doctor for further evaluation and management.
