yes and yes. I'm going to an allergist to get tested on Wednesday. It just started this summer. If it's been going on for months like mine, you can go to an ear nose and throat specialist and if they cannot find physical cause like a sinus infection you can ask them to refer you to an allergist.

I'd say if your sinuses are clear then it's 100% gotta be an allergy. If there's one thing I learned this summer, it's that. lol
