Nose and Ear Allergy
I have a running nose and itching in my ears for more than a year now. Earlier, i took it to be due to cold but when summer came in and running nose was still an issue, I went to see an ENT in March. He told me that my ears are clean, and gave me suppressant for the continuous sneezes and running nose. However, as the medicine course finished, the symptoms came back. I am constantly covering my mouth, nose and ears while stepping out so that dust doesn't enter. Can there be any other problem which was not addressed?

Start doing saline nasal washes twice daily 30 minutes before food. This will wash away the allergens causing the allergy.
In the meanwhile, meet an Allergist and undergo skin prick tests to identify the allergens causing the allergy and the Allergist will treat you accordingly.

If you are in Bangalore, do drop into my clinic and let me personally heLp you out.
