What over-the-counter medication is there to help people who have slight asthma with allergies?

by on 09. Apr, 2011 in Allergies

Question by boxergirl: What over-the-counter medication is there to help people who have slight asthma with allergies?
Sometimes I have slight asthma, but I believe that much of it is related to my allergy problem with mold, mildew, dust, weeds, etc. I have to take benadryl about everyday, and I sometimes get congestion in my sinuses and chest. Does decongestant help with preventing asthma at all? I have an inhaler available to take as needed, but don't usually have very bad symptoms. It seems to come and go. Is this fairly normal?

Do I have allergies or a bacterial infection?

by on 09. Apr, 2011 in Allergies

Question by Kevin C: Do I have allergies or a bacterial infection?
Every morning I wake up I have to blow my nose. 90% of the time there is green snot. The rest of the day I have to blow my nose several more times, but it's usually clear. I sneeze a lot during the day as well. Probably sneeze once an hour. I have never had allergies before, but I know it's possible to get them later on. I'm 25, male. I've physically active. I feel 100% fine.

by on 09. Apr, 2011 in Allergies

Question by Red: I have many allergies to plants. Should I avoid herbal remedies just to be safe?
I have allergies to various plants that come and go with no warning. I know that, since I am allergic to daisies, I shouldn't use echinacea (not sure if I spelled that right -- extract of purple coneflower, anyway) and ought to be careful with chamomile. When I was a child, my mother tried to 'cure' my hayfever by having me eat honey, and I almost died, so I'm more than a little worried about having another allergic reaction …
