Avatar f tn I am currently 11 weeks pregnant. I live in Texas where fall and spring have very high allergy counts. I am suffering over here because it seems as though all allergy medication is class c or lower. Class a and class b medications aren't helping me at all. I'm too congested for a neti pot, nothing ever comes out the other end, regardless of how often I blow my nose. Anyone have any advice??
Avatar f tn Hello, One of the reasons for blood shot itchy eyes can be seasonal allergies or hay fever.Even allergies due to contact dermatitis with the eye makeup can cause such symptoms.It can also be due to blepahritis or eye infections. You can take OTC antihistaminics like benadryl or Claritin. Eye drop versions of cromolyn sodium and antihistamines are available for itchy, bloodshot eyes and these can also be tried.Also maintain hygiene and avoid rubbing the eyes.
Avatar f tn I did not eat anything, it began as hay fever does, build up of itchy eyes and throat and right after I walked from work to the shops. I have been to numerous doctors and they all have told me to take various antihistamines to not much effect. I tell them how severe it gets and they just say 'mine too'. I have never seen anyone with hay fever experience it like this and it is worrying me.
Avatar n tn Then it can be conjunctivitis (bacterial, viral or fungal) It can also be due to Allergies, including seasonal allergies or hay fever or due to Chemical irritants (such as chlorine in a swimming pool or makeup) You should a apply cool compresses to soothe itching, apply warm soaks to soften crusts on the eyelids and lashes, then gently wipe the eyes with a soft gauze pad. Taking antihistamine eye drops and refrigerated artificial tears also help.

Avatar f tn Have you been to your doctors about it?, there has been like a gel that you put on your nose to calm hay fever that is safe for pregnant women maybe ask a chemist about it.

Avatar f tn Almost 3 weeks ago I thought I had a bad cold that lasted about 5 days, then it turned into a pesty mucus cough so I bought simple linctus which didnt help. After a further 5 days I went to the doctor because I thought I might have had an infection but I got the all clear and doctor told me to just eat chicken soup... I don't like soup. 10 days on and I'm still coughing mucus and my nose is still a little runny.
Avatar n tn I have had seasonal allergies for around ten years, mostly itchy eyes. This summer I have had one eye that has been exceptionally bothered. For two months it has been almost continuously itchy, and producing mucus. I wasn't too worried until recently i noticed the aggravated eyes pupil was dilating differently than the other. I read that some allergy medications and eye drops can cause unequal pupil dilation. Should I be worried, or is it most likely just the allergies?

Avatar m tn My mom and Uncle have been suffering this year from hay fever, which could be the cause. At first they were real bad, itchy red eyes, sneezing, itchy throat, runny nose etc. It seems to be clearing up now only one nostril seems to be blocked from time to time. I've also noticed my blood pressure has been unusually high.
Avatar n tn I have taken over the counter drugs....Claritin and Allegra. They do not help at all. Symptoms include, watery, burning and itchy eyes. Itchy nose. extreme drowsiness. almost unable to function as I should. I am 74 years old.
Avatar n tn Forgot to add I do already have a hay fever allergy but I have this problem year round. Also if it isn't an allergy then why is my nose always sniffly?
Avatar f tn not life or death type allergies, but sneezing, itchy nose and eyes, headaches. I take a one a day antihistamine to deal with it. .. but it says on the box not to take if pregnant. Im only 7 weeks, and have stopped taking them... but my allergies are horrible at the moment. All the sneezing is not helping with my morning sickness. During my last pregancey my symptoms actually went away but not this time... my question is can i take my antihistamine?
Avatar n tn I doubt this HPV to your eyes. Try some allergy drops, or Benadryl. If not better see an ophthalmologist. Dr. O.
Avatar n tn ” You clearly have the symptoms (runny nose and itchy eyes) of allergic rhinitis ( hay fever)but what you describe suggests that, in addition, you have allergic asthma, likely to be complicated by an allergic fungal disorder of the lungs called Allergic Bronchopulmonary Mycosis, a disease that for the most part is associated with the underlying asthma.
Avatar m tn Generally speaking swelling of the eyelids or sometimes the surface of the eye that comes up quickly is an allergy. Because things like hay fever affect both eyes if it is just one eye it is usually something the eye has come in contact with (contact allergy). So something gets on your hands, you rub your eye and get an allergic swelling. But having an eye exam is good idea.
Avatar n tn Cromolyn sodium is a nasal spray (Nasalcrom) for treating hay fever. Eye drop versions of cromolyn sodium and antihistamines are available for itchy, bloodshot eyes. If the symptoms are intense then you can go in for immunotherapy. Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries.Kind regards.
Avatar f tn Get yourself checked out by a diagnosis. The causes of eye allergies are similar to those of allergic asthma and hay fever. Medications and cosmetics can play a significant role in causing eye allergies. Traditional treatment and management of allergies consisted simply of avoiding the allergen in question or otherwise reducing exposure.
Avatar f tn Sounds like you could do with the best old fashioned thing in the world for flem, its a good chesse and onion sandwich and add in some sliced garlic do this 3 times a day, remember the onion should be cut thick and you need it to make your eyes water when you bite into it, do this for 2 or 3 days this should cure you, its cuts into the flem and breaks it up and clears your tubes, then no will talk to you, but hay your flem will be gone though.
