Avatar f tn I've never had allergies b4 but i'm so congested I can't breathe at all :/ My chest feels heavy I blow my nose and nothing comes out but as soon as I try to lay down its runny. I've tried Benadryl, saline drops and steam nothing is working anyone else? Anything that's helping u?
Avatar m tn Cold is not usually associated with all you listed out. Though it comes with cold or winter season often or with somebody that responds to change of temperature readily. All the things you said shows more of allergy, it now depends on if you have a family history of such or is just occuring to you.
Avatar n tn whats the different between true allergies and non true allergies
536455 tn?1213538065 Over the past 4 or 5 days I've noticed occasional streaks and bits of blood in my mucous. I know I've been having particularly irritating allergies, but this hasn't ever happened before. Aside from the regular allergy symptoms (which are lame, but I can deal with it) my throat has become sort of dry and sore a slight loss of appetite, which might be coincidental, and of course the blood, but otherwise I haven't been feeling ill at all.

Avatar n tn Well, no throat culture, chest x ray or blood test has been done so far. Just auscultation of the back/chest and examination of throat. Im not exactly sure about any pollen or weather changes, has been fairly summer like weather - sunny. The inhalers are Ventolin and Advair. Im trying to be patient, but at the same time, its hard not be worried/concerned. Overall, it now has been 15 days, but I have had a decrease in mucous (just a bit in the mornings, not colored, just cloudy).
Avatar n tn ve had post-nasal drip, one cold with a cough that lasted about 8 weeks and now a constant tickling sensation in my chest, under and on either side of the breast bone. I also sometimes feel a tightness in my chest, not pressure or pain but discomfort, hard to explain. The post--nasal drip is constant and annoying as well as the ticklish feeling. I went to one doctor and he thinks allergies but I don't know-what could I be allergic to in the middle of the desert?
Avatar f tn I am 7 weeks and have either a cold or allergies, not sure which. Is it safe to use cough drops?
Avatar f tn Ok, so I get red dots which depending on how cold i am could turn into red patches usually it does not even have to be cold just with the wind blowing and it brushes my skin or if i change temperatures for example if im in the parking lot of a grocery store once i go in the store i start breaking out really really bad I avoid shorts because it is embarrassing when people stare when out in public places .
Avatar f tn What you describe sounds serious; maybe a “chest cold” or bronchitis or maybe even pneumonia. At this point you should have a Chest X-ray, examination of the mucous you are coughing-up and a blood count. It sounds like your doctor has done his best to cure your illness but the infection has not responded to the antibiotics and you are no better. I believe it might be a good time for you to see another doctor for a second opinion.
Avatar f tn Is your cough coming from your chest or throat and nasal area? You may have allergies. I have had allergies ever since I got pregnant. ( I'm 5 1/2 months) I read online that pregnant women can get allergies when they become pregnant because of extra hormones. I cough n sneeze all the time now my symptoms have gotten worse cuz its been going on so long I have sore throat, and ear ache.
Avatar n tn i have had a cold for seven weeks. started with chest congestion and cough then moved to sinuses. lots of pressure in cheek bones and behind eyes. lots of fluid thru coughing and nose, was green now is clear. occassional ear clogging as well. took augment during fourth week for ten days. no relief of symptoms. never had a cold last more than a few days ever. i am normal healthy 34 yr old woman...now what?
Avatar f tn The timing sounds right for seasonal allergies in most locales too. I would also recommend treating it like allergies and seeing if it gets any better. I've had seasonal allergies my whole life and I have definitely become sore in my chest and abdomen from sneezing/coughing. If allergy treatments don't work, you can also try a humidifier. Like mentioned, stuffy noses are common during pregnancy, and the coughing could be from the air in your home being very dry.
Avatar f tn Same for my lungs, I havent coughed up blood or anything black, its only ranged from clear white saliva to slightly dark yellow/green phlegm (As would be present in cold/chest infection), but Ive noticed enough difference in myself overall to know I have an issue that needs dealing with. Hopefully someone can help provide some further insight in solving this issue?
Avatar f tn I have no history of smoking. In 2003 I was hospitalized after having trouble breathing. Chest x-rays where fine. All breathing test where fine. I was sick for about 3-4 weeks. In 2005 I started to develop allergies to various fruits and veg. I also whould have on going episodes of "Asthma" flare-ups. Again Chest x-rays where fine. Dr. whould report that chould not here any wheezing. Current in the past year I have started to have allergic reactions to various vapors, perfumes ect.
Avatar n tn Hello. Every year during the cold season I seem to get little red acne like spots on my chest and thighs. I don't think it's acne and maybe thought it was folliculitis because most of the bumps on my thighs occur where there's hair. However on my chest I don't have much hair at all and get the same thing. It doesn't go away very quickly, but seems to fade after a few months every time.
Avatar m tn The cough sounds like a bark when I sit up, but when I sit back in a chair or lay down, now the cough sounds like a chest infection, this chest/throat infection sound stops if I sit up. To my knowledge I haven’t lost any weight, although to be honest I don’t check my weight so have no guide. I also get pains occasionally in the centre of my chest under my breast bone. I went to my GP after the sore throats and I had a chest x-ray and blood test (what for I’m not sure) and both were clear.
1433843 tn?1299692105 Jenny - never mess with breathing always go straight to your dr. Things can turn on a dime, I've had pneumonia and allergies and waiting is never a good idea. You need to take care of yourself. Pain is your body's way of telling you something is wrong, at 28 breathing should never hurt. Please see your Dr. Hope to hear back that you have an appt.
Avatar m tn I have severe allergies to the point that I have to take a decongestant regularly. Over trhe past few years I've developed some problems and just now am thinking they may be linked to my constant use of decongestants. Chest pain, headache, cold/numb feet and hands, stinging/pins & needles in both feet, pounding heart, anxiety, irratability, fever and several others but those are the worse.
Avatar m tn I live in a house where one of my roommates is constantly smoking marijuana, lately I have been having issues with shortness of breath, tightness in my chest, a cough that will not go away. I personally do not smoke tobacco or marijuana. I have gotten a bunch of tests done by my gp with nothing showing up. I am very concerned about this as I seem to be getting worse, there has been small traces of blood in what i am coughing up.
Avatar n tn I have a history of seasonal allergies and for the past several weeks have been having a sligh tight feeling in my chest accompanied by mild shortness of breath. I have no actual trouble breathing or wheezing or anything like that and I run 6 miles several days a week with no problems at all. The symptoms are not brought on by exertion. I had a PFT done this morning and the results said Borderline Obstruction and small improvement after Albuterol. I do not have a history of asthma.
Avatar n tn I went on a cruise in June 2010, On the last night of the cruise I came down with a cold or virus. I have had chronic drainage and a cough ever since. I finally got a chest x-ray and the results were slight hyperinflation of the lungs. What can I do for this constant drainage, I take zyrtec daily and it is not really helping me with my allergies anymore.I am 48 and smoked when I was younger but quit 18 years ago.
