Is L Montus And Otrivin Sufficient To Treat Cold Allergy Causing Blocked Nose, Running Nose And Sneezing?
Hi.. I have cold allergy - blocked nose, running nose and sneezing. I also get sinus pain though not as frequent as cold. I take L Montus once in 4 days. I also use otrivin twice a day. I did an allergy test few mths back and was advised immunotheraphy. I have been taking injections for abt 4 mths now.. started with 2 injections a week and now taking once a week. (24 so far). However, the symptoms have not reduced at all. Please advise.

hi, the most important aspect of combating allergy is prevention. you need to find out what allergens around you are causing recurrent symptoms in you and try to avoid that. you are on right treatment. however, you may also try nasal corticosteroid sprays after consulting your ENT surgeon. frequent hot water sips reduce mucosl edema and improve your symptoms. hope this helped.
