Question 1

I'm dealing with some really irritating throat stuff  like a bad dry cough that just won't stop. It's so bad I can't even talk properly. I don't have a cold, just this annoying cough. I know I'm allergic to apples and citrus fruits, but I haven't had those in a long time. I'm starting to think maybe it's the smoke from the mosquito coils I've been using. Could they be causing this cough? I haven't tried any medicine yet, and I'm not sure what to do next. Any advice?

Accepted Answer

Exposure to mosquito coil smoke could be exacerbating your existing allergy symptoms. I recommend taking an antihistamine such as Cetirizine to help with the allergic reaction. Additionally, you can use a throat lozenge or syrup containing Diphenhydramine (brand name Benadryl) for soothing the throat. Make sure to stay hydrated and avoid further exposure to mosquito coil smoke. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

Question 2

I've been dealing with chronic urticaria for about a year now, and I'm really not sure what to do about it. I've been taking 5 mg of levocetirizine the whole time, but I'm still struggling. How should I go about treating this? Is there something else I should be trying or asking my doctor about? It's been quite frustrating, and I'm just looking for some guidance.

Accepted Answer

Try to identify the triggering factor and try to avoid it,that is the tretament for urticaria ,and levocet is the drug of choice,apart from that consume more fruits and stay hydrated that will help in fighting the allergen

Question 3

I'm supposed to have an IgE Allergy Antibody blood test in a few days, and I'm wondering about my daily routine. Is it okay to keep taking my multivitamin, Riconia Silver, or should I pause it until the test is done? I'm kind of concerned about how it might affect the results. Any advice would be great!

Visit your Physician for evaluation and appropriate management

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.
