Allergic rhinitis is a condition characterized by runny nose, blocked nose, sneezing attacks for longer than 1 hour per day and last for more than 2 weeks. It can be seasonal (hay fever) or perennial (happens all year round).\n\nAllergic Rhinitis can be caused by allergy to one or more of the following: dust, mites, pollen, animal danders.\n\nTreatment include humidity control: symptoms often improve with humidifiers; removal of dust mites by regular steaming of furnitures, avoidance of irritants like cigarette smoke or exhausts.\n\nDrug treatment include taking anti-histamines. There are non-drowsy ones to take.

Could be a sinus infection or an allergy.

The only thing that helps my allergic rhinitis is corticosteroid nasal sprays.  Like flonase or nasacort.  I also take antihistamines...zyrtec is a good one, so is allegra.  Right now allergies are awful because of the budding trees, and all the grass. Good luck, I know how painful it can be.

http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/3567/18904  \nCheck out the above site for some information. I always thought it had something to do with an enzyme in your system. But it may not be an allergy but an intolerance and there is a difference...

There are antihistamines (histamine blockers) and decongestants and combinations. \n\nAntihistamines block the receptors that allergens connect to that make your eyes and nose run. They "dry you up". \n\nDecongestants help shrink the mucous membranes and allow your sinuses to drain. They don't dry you up, but they allow everything to drain (down your throat, and sometimes you get a runny nose) so pressure doesn't build up.\n\nwith both, you need to drink a lot of fluids to keep your system in balance.

your question is too broad but a good cure for any allergy (nasal or on the skin) is Benadryl.  I used it for hives, an allergic reaction to stress that formed all over my body.

I also have allergic rhinitis and use nasal drops. My ENT doctor described this condition using a four-letter word!\n\nYou can use saline drops instead of regular nasal drops.\nSaline drops are available at any pharmacy, and they are basically just distilled water and salt. \nIn fact, you can make it yourself at home: boil 1 cup water for 5 minutes, add a tablespoon salt, cool it off, and put it in a clean container. Use it the same way you'd use nasal drops.\n\nAnother thing, you should rub Vaselline inside your nostrils every day, to keep them moist and prevent cracking, bleeding, and itching.

Sneezing is a symptom of allergies, but you can take Benadryl for relief of allergies.

Hey there. First of all, allergies are generally seasonal. If this is something that happens to you every year at about the same time, then you should do some investigation. You can do this by learning about things for your area of the country like, the pollen count for your area, crop cycles for your area, and check on possible mold and dust exposure. If you don't have a chronic past history (meaning that it happens at the same time each year) then you more likely have a cold. Here's another thing to try. Try some over the counter allergy medicine and see what happens. If they clear you right up, then you are dealing with a seasonal allergy, if not, you have a cold virus. Check out About.com for more information on allergies and colds. Good luck!

I believe you are talking about sudafed - generic name pseudoephedrine.  This is an OTC (over-the-counter) decongestant that can be purchased at any drugstore and will decrease the congestion and swelling of your nasal passages.  As far as limiting nasal secretions, or "stopping post-nasal drip," your best option is to discover the source of your irritation - do you have a virus or other infection causing it?  Do you have allergies to animals or dust that are in your home/office, or are your nasal passages irritated by acid coming up from your stomach?  These are the most common causes for post-nasal drip.  I would recommend you see a physician for your allergies and try hard to eliminate the source of your allergies at home - before you suffer further complications.

Others have explained the procedure for allergy tests, but there are other things you can do to work out whether you have allergies. \n\nOne, keep a diary.  Note the weather as well as what you eat.  Also note your symptoms.  Once a week, look back at your diary and see if a pattern is emerging.\n\nSecond, buy yourself some antihistamine tablets next time you get your cold symptoms.  Make sure they are straight antihistamine, not combined with decongestant or any other medicine.  If the antihistamine clears your nose on its own, there's a very good chance that the cause is an allergy - because that's all antihistamine does, is suppress your allergic reaction.  So if you're not having a reaction, it shouldn't do anything!

I get this when I'm suffering from some type of allergy. You may want to try some benedryl or other antihistimine to relieve it.

I've taken Seldane a couple of times and it was possibly the most potent antihistamine I've ever had.  My methods for allergy relief now are quite different.  I work as a doctor of chiropractic/clinical kinesiologist in a sports chiropractic clinic.  I use a very specific allergy elimination technique that works great as well as get rid of any inflammation in the nervous system and bugs in your gut to assist with allergies of all types.  If I knew what area you lived in I could possibly advise you on where to go/who to see.  In any case, I can't vouch for other doctors' results but two websites may be of interest/help:  see below.  Allergies are nothing more than your brain's inability to recognize certain substances properly and respond properly.  Acupuncture, kinesiology, nutrition, etc...are all good for relieving allergy symptoms and get to the root of the problem.

Allergies are the body's inappropriate reaction to a normally benign protein, which the body sees as an invader. Note that allergies are ALWAYS to a protein. Intolerances as well as sensitivities are different from allergies in that it is not necessarily to a protein - such as lactose intolerance - but can produce similar symptoms.\n\nThe immune system is designed to watch for and attack invading cells which come into our bodies, such as viruses and bacteria. Sometimes, though, the immune system sees something which isn't bad for us, such as pollen, dander, even foods, as an invader, and it goes on the attack. Mast cells rush to the scene, releasing their load of chemicals, and calling in other inflammatory cells of the immune system, such as basophils and Killer T-cells. All the chemicals these cells release are what cause the symptoms of allergy, including hives, running nose, itchy eyes, sneezing, coughing, etc. One of the main chemicals involved is histamine, which is why antihistamines (also known as histamine blockers) are prescribed for allergies.

Sounds like morning allergies. I used to have that when i lived in an apt that had bad ventillation and carpet. You have to vacuum frequently, wipe away dusty areas, open your windows in the morning. When i moved into my new apt that has wooden floors, I never had the sneezing problem again.
