Brief Answer:
management Aspect.

Detailed Answer:
Dear
Thanks for reverting back.

1. As there is a history of repeated colds, watering from the nose, sneezing, and attacks are frequent/seasonal, thus could be allergic [vasomotor rhinitis], thus following is my stepwise management:

- Rule out visible causes first: check with Hemoglobin, WBC, absolute eosinophil count, and X-ray PNS [or consultation with E.N.T. Specialist].
- If after examination and investigation, no pathology is detected, prevention or repeated attacks are the main aims of treatment.
- Apart from any system of medicine, it is also the dietary regimen which one has to follow:

A. HEALTHY LIVING

• Anything you do, go low and go slow and make changes gradually, as your small changes become a habit, you can continue to ADD more healthy choices.
• Eat a variety of nutrient-rich food but who have some added advantage like Cabbage (cholesterol-lowering benefits), carrot (helps in liver detoxification), cauliflower (ideal against abdominal problems), date)-(best for muscle development), onions ( contains flavonoids which protect against cardiovascular disease), garlic ( has broad-spectrum antibiotic properties)
. Daily regime: Don’t skip breakfast: take your lunch between 12 -1 PM which is the peak period of Pitta (responsible for digestion) and have your dinner 2 hours before sleeping.
. Proper sleep with proper diet is the key to healthy living in Ayurveda.
. Avoid smoking, alcohol, caffeine, eating late at night, stress, and drink water instead of colas.
. Practice Yoga, Meditation, and go for an exercise regime.
. Walk a while after meal to help digestion.
. Remember good food leads to noble thoughts with sound memory helping in mental health and social well-being.

B. IMMUNOMODULATION (Immunity)
As suffering/experiencing recurrent allergic infection, Rasayana drugs (Rejuvenation/Immunomodulators) should be instituted in your management as part of XXXXXXX (palliative) therapy i.e. which corrects the dysfunction of tissues without disturbing the functions of normal tissues, also Rasayana drugs potentiate humoral antibodies, by increasing serum Immunoglobulins such as IgA, IgG, and IgM.
i. Proteins are essential for antibodies production so milk, egg (white), beans, yogurt, soymilk, pumpkin, squash, watermelon, peanuts, almonds, if non-vegetarian (meat) are choices
ii. Vitamin A: helps to maintain the Thymus gland which is a powerful antiviral gland: thus XXXXXXX carrots, cantaloupe, egg yolk, apricots, pumpkin, papaya, are ideal.
iii. Vitamin C: is needed for the proper functioning of the immune system: amla is best.
iv. Vitamin E: is a powerful antioxidant that helps to stimulate antibody production: peanuts, dried apricots, cooked spinach) taro root can be taken.
v. Vitamin B is important for the activity of phagocytes: eggs, cheese, pistachio, raw garlic, sunflower, and sesame oil.

2. Take Natrum Mur 6X: one to four-time daily. [use of peppermint products, caffeine, alcohol should be avoided]

3. Also because there is a burning sensation of feet and soles, consult with a General Physician or Medicine Specialist to exclude diabetes, Leprosy, calcium or salt deficiency, till then
- take calcarea phosphorica: 3X or 6X: 2-4 tablets thrice daily.

4. As the problem of continuous flatulence [gas] is there:
- avoid oily foods, aerated drinks.
- avoid smoking chew properly and avoid overeating.
- eat slowly, avoid haste.
- eating a little less, than demanded by appetite is very important.
- Avoid onions, peas, beans, dals.

* Check with Stool for worm infestation
* Hemoglobin for Anemia.
*Ultrasonography of Hepatobiliary [HB] region.
* Sigmoidoscopy/Colonoscopy: if indicated, till then:

- Abdominal exercise [straight leg raising, sit-ups, walking, jogging] is very useful for chronic flatulence and constipation.

PS. I do prepare result-oriented and evidence-based Medicine, which helps in alleviating symptoms of the common cold-gas-weak immunity- and burning sensation. If interested I can courier you the medicine, also necessary because since you catch a cold very easily and due to an outbreak of CORONA, it is very important to increase your immunity to fight off any infection.
