Hey,for the past few years now I have had problems in my nose.At first me and my parents thought it was hey fever in the summer, and the common cold in winter.But recently,one minute I can be fine,clear headed,no runny noses and no sneezing.The next minute I just start sneezing and my nose gets all blocked and the bridge of my nose feels really tight and feels really heavey too.I don think I'm allergic to my dog,because its not as if as soon as I stoke him it starts.It can be anywhere,at school,outside,it just happens.My dad keeps telling to go to the doctors,but since its winter,and he's slightly dismissive he might not help.Has anyone had a similar problem?

You have to go see an allergist.

My daughter is always stuffed up with her nose and she also has frequent headaches. She had allergy tests and was found to be allergic to the dust mite She has it all the year round and nothing seems to control it.

Hi Muffles, you have to go have an allergy test. See an allergist or ENT and he/she would order a skin ***** test. I never knew or thought I would be allergic to dustmites. I have very bad nose blocks for many years before I went to see the ENT. So since you had it so long, it's best to go to an allergist or ENT.
Stepheny, what's your daughter taking to help her nose blocks? Is anything helping?
