Hello,

So , I think first thing you should do is to identify the allergic agent which causes worsening of your symptoms. It can be a food, milk, eggs, cold weather, cold bath etc.

After that try to avoid it as much as possible. Steroid and allergic drug will help you to control symptoms but in the long run avoidance of allergen is must. Hope you understand. There is nothing to worry. You will be alright soon.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
