Suggest Remedy For Cold, Congested, Runny And Burning Nose?
I have been suffering from a cold or allergy for a few days, with congested, runny nose, and light bothering my eyes. I ve used the warm wet cloth over my eyes and cheekbones which has helped. Today I used Afrin nose spray, 2 times in each nostril 45 minutes ago and my nose is still burning! What can I do to make it stop. (I think it was a big mistake to use this product!)

Hi, thanks for the query.
In my opinion , you have allergic rhinitis
Avoid allergy triggering objects .Start Antihistaminic levocetirizine + Montelukast combination . Continue Decongestant nasal drops it will relief watering & congestion for few days only.
Certainly above treatment will give you much relief but if relief is not upto satisfaction level then consultation with your ENT doctor will become essential.
Hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
