I'm a 29 years male, 5'9", 60kg (very thin), living in India.

For last several years, I've suffered from consistent sneezing, mucous formation in nose (especially after getting up in the morning), followed by fever every couple of weeks. Entering Air-conditioned places (like theatres, offices) immediately aggravated problems. I consulted an ENT, who diagnosed my problems as "allergic rhinitis" and the ENT prescribed Cipla Duonase Nasal Spray. I used to take the spray every day for a year and my sneezing/mucous problems were solved.

Now, for the last 1 year, I've left the Nasal Spray because I didn't want to take medication (wanted a natural option). I practiced the following:

1) Got a comprehensive food allergy test done and found I'm allergic to banana. Stopped having banana. (The test reported might have mentioned I'm allergic to pollen and/or dust, but I figured I can't do much about that, as India is a dusty country....so i focussed on the food items)

2) Almost everyday, done steaming with 2-3 drops of Karvol Plus tablets (which contain eucalyptus oil, menthol etc.)

I've noticed that, while I have do have a cold every day and lots of mucous and a bit of sneezing, I don't have sneezing bouts and fever (every couple of weeks). I could not have imagined this improvement (without using nasal spray).

Now, I want to get rid of this cold/mucous and slight sneezing. Do I resort back to Cipla Duonase Nasal Spray (a step backward for me) or should I try something different?
