I thought I was allergic to ragweed, but thought it would be over, or nearly over, by now. It’s rated as “low” for my area, but I’m still miserable. My sinuses are so blocked, it’s like trying to breathe through a brick wall, especially at night. It’s affecting my quality of life. I’ve been taking antihistamines for a couple of months now, with not much relief. Is anyone still suffering from ragweed allergies?
Anyone have any good natural “cures” for seasonal allergies? I hate taking drugs everyday for this long!
i have a super bad headache and a couple of people suggested in response to my last question that it could be a sinus infection………..
ive been looking at symptoms, and it makes sense, cuz ive been getting a little bit of a sore throat
buttttt no part of my face is swollen, and my nose is only stuffed up a teeny teeny tiny barely-noticeable-unless-im-thinking-about-it kind of way
I have tried using a neti pot to flush my sinuses with saline solution, but all too often the water refuses to flow (even if I have the correct alignment, and wait for 5 minutes there is not budging!). Usually antihistamines will provide some relief, but right now I have no relief with them. Does anyone have any advice for me?
About 6 months ago, I got a really bad and terribly stinky sinus infection and in about 3 weeks it began to waine till it was completely gone. But!… ever since then, I have been getting a smell within my sinus area of that ugly smell I had when I had the infection. It ususally happens when I bend down. Its really gross. Why is this still happeneing and how can i get rid of it? Do I need to go to a ENT?
