"List of pre-existing conditions: pnemonic
patch in lungs some 25 yeras back which
cured with antibiotics in a months time.
bronchial cough 6 months back which got
cured in 10 days time with antibiotic &
vigrous steam inhalation using stong doses
of nilgiri oil. Post cure rendered me
intolerant to cold with eye burning when
sitting in closed ac room. Post cure also
resulted in post nasal drip which never
experienced in the past.
Diagnosis that has been suggested: allergy
of some kind..... sugar test, chest x ray,
urea test, lipid profile ecg etc.
conducted...all ok !
Current medical status: ent examined the
nasal passage & discovered slight
inflamation...got releif with antibiotics,
& "allegra 120""also taking homeopathy
medecines lile pustilla . hepa sulf & nux
vomica
Current medical treatment: allegra 120,
vitamin c, homeopathy like nux vomica,
puslytilla"
According to the symptoms recorded
including nasal drip, nose blocked,
phlegm, burning sensation in eyes… you
are probably experiencing inflammation of
the nose, upper (nasal) part of the throat
and maybe sinuses. This inflammation can
be caused by infection (viruses and
bacteria), allergy and irritation. In your
case, all 3 factors are probably present
because you reported “relief when using
antibiotics”, “allergy of some kind”
and “relief and worsening caused by
cold/warm”. You can use de-congestive
nose-drops and antibiotics in the meantime
and if the symptoms persist you can seek
help from an ENT specialist.
