I get cold in the morning with pruritic rashes nasal congestion and eye itchiness please help
hello regarding the treatment I suggest you continue the medicines as they are I would like to know how much of prednisolone did you start with nextly you must start on intranasal steroids to help relieve the nasal symptoms use fluticasone furoate twice daily two puffs in each nostril twice daily the brands available in the philippines are avamys flutiair nasoflo flusort if you feel the antihistaminics are making you drowsy then you may keep the cetirizine for the evening and take loratidine in the morning apply a mild steroid cream like betamethasone valerate 1 topical cream over the affected skin the brands available in your country are diprolene diprosone and betnovate long term solution you must do a skin prick testing to check what you are allergic to skin prick testing is better than blood allergy testing both the methods check for food and aeroallergens remember that before the testing you should stop the antihistaminics for five days with such a test we will come to know the offending agent and give you the right advice to prevent that particular allergen do revert back for more details apply mild soap and wear loose fitting clothes to avoid friction over the affected area on the skin
