I've been dealing with this allergic problem for the past couple of years, and it's been pretty frustrating. I take medication, and it seems to go away for a while, but then it's back. Recently, my doctor suggested I try acebrophylline. I'm a bit unsure about it. Should I go ahead with it, or maybe get a second opinion from another doctor?

Acebrophylline is commonly prescribed for managing respiratory allergies and asthma. If your symptoms persist despite treatment, its wise to follow up with your current doctor or seek a second opinion for a tailored long-term allergy management plan.

I've been sneezing like 20 to 30 times a day, my nose is constantly stuffy, and my eyes are so watery. I talked to an ENT doctor and they had me take fexofenadine for a month, but it's not really helping. Do you have any better ideas to help with this?
Persistent discomfort near the esophagus while swallowing can be concerning! Given your symptoms and lack of improvement with the prescribed medications, consider the following possibilities: 1. _Esophagitis_: Inflammation of the esophagus, possibly caused by acid reflux or infection. 2. _Dysphagia_: Difficulty swallowing due to a narrowing or obstruction of the esophagus. 3. _Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)_: Stomach acid flowing back up into the esophagus, causing discomfort and inflammation. 4. _Esophageal spasm_: Abnormal muscle contractions in the esophagus, leading to discomfort and difficulty swallowing. It's essential to seek further evaluation and diagnosis from: 1. _Gastroenterologist_: For an endoscopy or other diagnostic tests to examine the esophagus and stomach. 2. _ENT specialist_: To reassess the tonsillitis diagnosis and explore other possible causes. In the meantime, try: 1. _Avoiding trigger foods_: Identify and avoid foods that exacerbate your symptoms. 2. _Eating smaller, more frequent meals_: To reduce discomfort and difficulty swallowing. 3. _Staying upright after meals_: To minimize acid reflux and discomfort. Please consult your doctor or a specialist to determine the best course of action for your specific situation.

I've been having a rough time in the mornings. As soon as I wake up, I start sneezing non-stop. It's really uncomfortable because my eyes get watery, and my nose starts running. Plus, after sneezing, I always end up with a headache. Could this be allergies or something more serious? What should I do to feel better?
You may be experiencing symptoms of allergic rhinitis. I recommend taking an antihistamine such as Zyrtec (cetirizine) 10mg once daily to help with the sneezing, watery eyes, and nasal discharge. Additionally, you can use a nasal corticosteroid spray like Flonase (fluticasone) 50mcg in each nostril once daily to reduce inflammation in the nasal passages. If you also have a headache, you can take a pain reliever such as Tylenol (acetaminophen) 500mg as needed for relief.
