I have horrible allergies! This year I thought I was going to be fine. I discovered My eyes do not hurt a lot this year but I have a very bad stuffy nose. Instead, My sister is the one with the eye problems. I really want to feel better. What are things I can do in addition to taking my medication to lower allergy symptoms? I really need to know how to prevent a stuffy nose and itchy eyes. Thank you.

I don’t get allergic to dogs or anything like that, I’ve basically had them my whole life. But the problem is is that I have guinea pigs which I love DEARLY, and I’m allergic to them! I get rashes below my chin, and above my chest. I don’t get bumps or anything though, I only get bumps from rabbits, which occur on my face. Does anyone know of medicine that I can use to treat these allergies?

I’m allergic to dust and certain types of tree pollen. It gets really bad in the spring, in the other seasons its the dust but its not really that bad. I was wondering if there is a way to cure my allergies. The over counter meds and precribed stuff dont really do much for me, especially the non-drowsey stuff. I find only stuff that works is that make me drowsy, but i can’t take those during the day, if not i’ll fall asleep in class or cant pay attention.

I have severe allergies but I can’t tell…I have been take my allergy meds and they are not helping. I have also been taking OTC meds like Zyrtec and Claritin. I have also been taking Nyquil/Dayquil and that seems to be doing the trick. How can you tell the difference?

noomi asked:


I have allergies all year round! Now allergy shots…the goal is to give gradual exposure so that the body can “get use to it” and become desensitized. It’s supposed to make the body react less to the allergens. But why haven’t the body “gotten use” to the allergens after years of exposure and symptoms already? Claritin and Zyrtec isn’t working…even with a combo usage of Sudafed. Help!?

Confused asked:


A family member of mine is allergic to short haired dogs. I like a certain breed, but it happends to be short haired. I have been looking at this breed for several years now. I really don’t like the longhaired breeds. I looked and I am pretty stuck on this breed. Can we get rid of these allergies for good?

Joel B asked:


I have been prescribed allegra and I am wondering if you have to start taking it before your allergies start?

PrinceofPersia asked:


I’ve been led to believe that prolonged contact with an object you might have allergies to would lead to greater allergies in time, but also that taking small doses of the said substance over a long duration would build up an immunity. Where do these two facts intertwine?
To list a specific object, poison oak/ivy
