Hello.
Thank you for asking at HCM.
I went through your history and would like to make following suggestions to you:
1. Were I treating you, I would suggest you regular montelukast which will be helpful for both upper and lower airway allergies.
2. As you have more nose symptoms, I would also suggest you daily antihistamine like cetirizine/levocetirizine/fexofenadine in addition to montelukast.
3. I would suggest you to use salbutamol or levosalbutamol inhaler on as-and-when-needed basis whenever you have lower respiratory system symptoms.
4. Personally, I would suggest you allergy testing which will help you identify the substances you may be allergic to and also to know how to avoid them.
Based on the report, an allergist-immunologist may also prescribe you allergen specific immunotherapy which works on your immune system to improve allergy symptoms gradually.
5. I would also suggest you regular breathing exercises and a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals (adequate amounts of green leafy vegetables, fruits, sprouts, etc) which will improve your lung capacity and immunity respectively in a long run.
6. Please avoid exposure to dusts, smokes and air pollution as much as possible.
Hope above suggestions will help you.
Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at HCM.
Wish you the best of the health.
Thank you & Regards.
