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 this really frustrating issue where my skin starts itching about 45 days after I eat things like tur dal or chana dal. It's not just itching eitherthere's noticeable swelling, and it's super irritating. I've been taking cetirizine tablets to help with the itching, but they leave me feeling dizzy afterwards. Is there anything else I can do to manage these symptoms, or should I be avoiding certain foods altogether? I'm just not sure what steps to take next.
Here's a step-by-step approach to help you manage this issue: Identifying the Cause 1. Food allergy or intolerance: It's possible that you have a food allergy or intolerance to certain legumes like tur dal and chana dal. 2. Histamine release: Cetrizine helps alleviate itching, but the dizziness side effect suggests that histamine release might be a contributing factor. Dietary Changes 1. Elimination diet: Try removing tur dal, chana dal, and other potential allergenic foods from your diet for 2-3 weeks to see if symptoms improve. 2. Food diary: Keep a food diary to track which foods trigger itching and swelling.
