Honey is a good allergy medicine. \nBut you have to make sure that it was made by local bees.\nSo get it at a farmer's market, or a produce stand.\n\nTake a teaspoon of it a day at least.\nThen add it to your coffee, tea, cereal, etc.\n\nIt really does help. I used to have horrible allergies, and dark under-eye circles that go with being of scandinavian descent and having bad allergies, but I don't anymore. :)

Try tea tree oil. You can find it at any health food store. I use it straight from the bottle. It works wonders.

Allergy or Atopy is your problem.\nThe mucus membranes of your throat,ears and nose are reacting to substances that are in the air you breathe .\nVery common in certain individuals in the summer...pollen,hay  and other plant products are released into the air so that they can grow somewhere else - it's nature.\nDepending on the severity of your symptoms,there are several treatment options available...\nAnti-histamine tablets as mentioned by other answerers-for mild symptoms\nNasal sprays and tablets -for moderate symptoms\nDepot steroidal injections -for severe symtoms.\nSee your Otorhinolaryngologist -(-ear,nose and throat doctor) for your best options.

I guess you mean oak tree.  I am allergic to them.  My allergies are worse in the spring, because the trees are budding and pollen is flying around.  I take allergy shots and they really seem to help.  I am allergic to most trees, grass, weeds, mold, and animals.  My allergies are bad in the spring and fall.  Good luck, allergies can really  make you miserable.

Your symptoms can be airborne or food oriented. Probably pollen or pet dander.......get a high quality air purifier and humidifier and use them while sleeping.  Use over the counter antihistamines, some with pseudophedrine can keep you awake,use only during daytime, but those with diphenhydramine can promote sleep at night.\n\nIf your allergy is food oriented stay away from the most common triggers: nuts, aged cheese, wines, preserved meats and fruits....... lots of luck on solving your allergies.......

I would try aloe. There are products in the baby aisle used to treat the same problem and would work for adults as well.\n Otherwise you just have to wait it out and stay out of the sun.

drugs may help u to interrupt an acute condition, but with allergy the best treatment is to stay away from the allergens. dust, pollen, smoke, cigarettes, and fungi, but also some perfumes, or any funny smell can trigger your allergic reaction.but also many other things (animal hair, feathers, hay,..... etc.). also humidity and hot weather can aggravate the condition. some people take quiet some time to discover the cause of their allergy, but your are your best doctor and you can discover the cause of your allergy by close observation and try to stay away from it (or if unavoidable be exposed to it the shortest time possible).\nalso drinking plenty of plain water, eating healthy food with as much fresh vegetables and fruits can help keep up your system, thus making it stronger to the allergens.\nthe worst time for pollen allergy are May June July...

Hey, I suffer from allergies too!!  Either your doctor can prescribe you an inhaler for your nose which you spray just before you go to bed, or you can try breatheasy strips from over the counter at the chemist. They both work for me!!

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 have the same problem - No one has mentioned "environment" (that I saw?) - It's now Spring - What kind of climate do you live in? I'm in CO - and the Humidity today was 8% (Yes, EIGHT percent) - but "cold" so the heater was blasting all night ... so dry air effects me as well as lack of moisture that comes with higher humidity...\n\nOption #2) - Do you take Tylenol PM (or any antihistamines?) - For whatever reasons - these too dry out my eyes (well, B/C they're a type of antihistamine)\n\nOption #3) - People have already mentioned allergies... and alcohol - May wanna check with an allergist about down pillows, or Spring hay fever - or even "mold" if you are in a northern climate, and the windows are sealed - I found my "allergies" were worse in the winter than summer, and never understood this since all plants/trees/weeds and such are "dead" (dormant) - well, turns out Mold in the air ducts was the cause... \n\nIf you go to a Doc, and tell him about using "Clear Eyes" or "Visine" - those too have a "rebound effect" and he'll (she'll) encourage you to go to "natural tears" for the others' can CAUSE red eyes after long term use... But I too still use them, cuz "natural tears" don't remove the red - and don't wanna look hung over at work - When I'm NOT! LOL \n\nCheers and good luck!

i have a holistic/natural remedy for you.  get some local honey (honey made in your local area) and take one tablespoon a day.  within two weeks you should notice a remarkable improvement.\n\nhow it works:  the bees collect pollen from plants in your area (pollen is what makes your nose runny, itchy and sneeze) and make honey with it.  by ingesting a small amount you are building up your natural immunity to the ACTUAL allergens that are bothering you.  \n\nthis is amazing, inexpensive and tastes yummy.  if you don't want to swallow a spoon of honey, add it to your tea, coffee, cereal etc.\n\nhappy thoughts of great breathing, love, peace and light!

I've got one for you to try.  I was an asthma sufferer for all of my life.  I worked with a doctor that had many "old-wives tales" remedies and I tried this one and I swear to this day that this is what worked.  You need to find a local honey bee keeper and buy some honey from your community.  The bees bring back the pollen from the local plants (allergens) you need take 2 tsps 2x a day.  This will build up your tolerence to your local triggers.\nhope it works...I have not had a flare up since doing this...if I move I start all over again.

I use Chamomile drops now. You can probably get them at alternative health stores. You can also mix up you own eye bath solution of Boric acid crystals and sterile water. It would be wise to check the proportions before using this remedy. I have used it for years because of allergies. It works well and costs next to nothing.\nMost pharmacies sell Boric acid crystals.
