Accepted Answer

Elevated IgE levels, especially with allergic rhinitis, are usually a sign of an allergic response, not cancer. It's important to manage your allergies with medication, which can help lower IgE levels over time. The duration of improvement can vary, but with proper treatment, you should start seeing changes in a few weeks to months. Always follow up with your doctor for personalized care.

Accepted Answer

This could be a sign of a respiratory infection or condition such as pneumonia or bronchitis. I recommend you take an over-the-counter cough suppressant like Delsym (dextromethorphan) as directed on the package. Additionally, you can use an expectorant like Mucinex (guaifenesin) to help loosen the mucus. It is important to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention promptly.
