My wife's been dealing with a dry cough for over two months now. We did an X-ray and some blood tests, and the doctor thinks it's an allergy. She's already been through three courses of tablets, but there's still no improvement. What do you think we should do next? Do you have any suggestions?

View allI'm experiencing continuous sneezing after I masturbate, and I've checked with doctors, but all of them say it's an allergy. I also feel discomfort in my uvula, which I think might be causing the sneezing. I'm really curious about what might be going on. Is there something specific causing this, or any way to prevent it?

Im a bit concerned because every time I masturbate, I start experiencing continuous sneezing. I know I'm allergic to dust mites, but it seems unusual for this to happen only then. Could it be possible that masturbation is somehow triggering my allergic rhinitis?
There is no direct link between masturbation and allergic rhinitis triggered by dust mites. It is more likely that the act of masturbation is not directly causing your symptoms. It is possible that there may be other factors at play, such as the environment in which you are masturbating or other triggers that coincide with the activity. To help manage your symptoms, you can try using an antihistamine such as Cetirizine at a dose of 10mg once daily. Additionally, using a nasal corticosteroid spray like Fluticasone can help reduce nasal inflammation and sneezing. Make sure to also minimize exposure to dust mites in your environment by regularly cleaning and dusting your living space

I'm finally over my cold and all the symptoms, which is great. But now I'm wondering how to stop taking the tablets I've been on. I was prescribed a combination of fexofenadine 120 mg and montelukast 10 mg to take at night for six months, and I've just finished that period. The doctor who prescribed it has moved abroad, and I'm not sure what to do next. I tried skipping the medication for two days, but started experiencing itching all over my body. I was initially taking this for a runny nose from 6 am to 11 am every day. Since these medications have worked and my cold is completely cured, how should I go about stopping them?
Ceruklin Ear Drops are typically used for 3-5 days before earwax is softened and removed. Since you've already used the drops for 5 days, consider: - Continuing for 1-2 more days (max 7 days) - Having your ears checked by a doctor or ENT specialist - Using ear drops as directed and avoiding excessive use If the wax persists, consult a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and removal.
