Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I can understand your concern.
Honestly speaking, allergy don't get cured.
We can control allergy with medicines.
But we can not remove from the body.
In my opinion, you should get done detailed allergy testing to identify the allergens.
You can also opt for immunotherapy.
But with immunotherapy, allergy tend to reappear within 2 years.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
