What Is The Cause For Constant Sneezing For Five Minutes In The Morning?

Every morning I wake up I continuously sneeze for five minutes. I have seasonal allergies but I take allergy medicine for it. My allergies take place during the spring/summer. Therefore I don't see a reason why my constant sneezing is taking place. What do you think?

Hi

Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum

Individuals having seasonal allergy may be sensitive to dust or other allergens in the environment. At present you seem to be having sneezing episodes in the morning. This is due to the presence of dust or dandruff over her pillow cover.

When you go to the bed in the night the senses of your body will be low. The dust and other allergens will get accumulated inside the nose. When you wake up in the morning, the senses are back and this will indicate the brain about the presence of allergens and then the nose starts clearing it, inducing sneezing and running nose.

Hence, avoid sleeping in front of the AC or under the fan and change your pillow cover every night before going to the bed. Continue with the medicines for allergy.
