I keep on having a runny nose, I've been to the doctor and she prescribe me so nasal spray(the 1 that has a smell to it) and it doesn't seem like its working. She didn't tell me whats causing it, but she keep on saying its allergy. Does anyone else have this problem before?

Allergies indeed u__u;;;
i had this problem before, and i took this drink called isotonic OPC3 (i think its grape skin) and it did the trick for me. i only get runny nose now if my allergies were particularly bad that day.

you can still get allergies in the fall time? was that drink prescribe or brought?

[tulove]

Bought it from Market America, it was recommended by a friend~
i get allergies year round but it only happens on some days now.
i think its from the stuff animals i have in my room D:

reply in the wrong board.. sorry

[jackiexp]

o.O.. thanks. Since I live in the USA, I'm going to look around to find that and try it ... is it expensive?

[bonjour tristesse.]

Has anyone ever told you to go to the doctors then? Like everyone else, it must be allergies.

She said she been to the doctor on the 1st post.

My mom said it might be lack of vitamin! not sure

that happens to me when the weather changes (as well as stuffy nose), especially when it gets cold. I don't have allergies, but my dr told me I should take Claritin (I use Safeway's own--it's exactly the same and less money) when I need it--it does help. Definitely better than nose running for hrs. ><

I have it since i was 8 yrs old (now i'm 14)
yes, it's allergy. My doctor didn't tell me what's the cause either. He said the only way for me is move to 4 seasons country.. ;;

and that nasal spray, honestly.. doesn't work for me.. it made my allergy worse. Bought it for $20.

i'm not really sure about it but you might have got rhinitis.
you can check more about it over here... but i'm not really sure you really got this.

the best things to do now is to either consult another doctor or a specialist.

I used to have runny nose all year long. My mom was so disgusted >_>
SO not too long ago, I went to the doctor and they gave me an allergy test where they poke all kinds of needles into your arm and make it look like the underside of a female dog (it looks like nipples :/).
Turns out I'm SUPER allergic to dust mites. The nurse and doctor were even amazed at how allergic I was -___-
The nurse kept on saying, "Oh my god! Oh my god! That's the worse case I've ever seen!"
My arm was so puffy and itchy T___T

I was given a nasal spray and it works for me.

Have you taken that allergy test? If you haven't, you should set up an appointment.

[xxiaoMEI]

i have it too, but its not so bad..
i mostly sneeze all year round though D: LOL

[jackiexp]

Allergy test? I've never heard of that. I'm not sure if the clinic I go to see the doctor does that. >.< How did they know what were you allergic to?

Isn't dust mites is a bug?

[flyingmochi]

THe test was just several needles (with different allergy causing things?) being pricked into my arms.
It was really easy to tell that I was allergic to dust mites because the place where that was pricked into me was really big and puffy.

DUST MITE O_O


Yeah, I'm not sure if they really put a bug into my arm .____.

O.O that is some creepy thing! I never knew dust mites are in the house.
Maybe thats what's causing my running nose, also sneezing and itches!

There's a ton of animals living in the house. But dust mites are the ones the cause my allergies.
That's why my mom is a clean a holic....

^may I ask how long have you been trying the drink? A friend recommended the same thing for my running nose/rashes, but it's honestly not been helping. They keep saying it's a long process, but damn I don't think I'll have a nose left after another year lol

I don't really like taking allergy medication because it doesn't fix the problem, they only stop your symptoms temporarily, if only the stupid drink would work faster...haha

[tulove]

Its suppose to take effect if you stick with it religiously for 3months O-O
but for me it worked after a month ~
and by the second month i stopped and my allergies have decreased by ALOT and havent come back since then O-O miracle >.<
(i only had to take 1 allergy pill this whole year :3)

but as for my mom, shes been taking it for months!!! 3+ months, and it hasn't helped her much. she still has her allergies daily >.<;;; so shes been taking her allergy pills ~~~ i don't know any other way to stop em sorry T_T

so i think this drink varies from person to person [sadly u.u;;;]?

[Dekay]

Woah a runny nose for a year straight? I don't know, you should try checking a different doctor because I have allergies too but I've never experienced a runny nose throughout the whole year.
