Allergies :: Ancient Exercise Regime To Get Rid Of The Flu And Allergy
I was a favourite of the darned 'flu'. We call it rhinitis, hay fever, sinusitis, runny nose, allergy.whatever... I tried it all; Antibiotics/Antihistamines/ cold tabs/ cough syrups, steroid sprays/ cetirizine/loratidine.. Even tried those allergy tests.. What i realised was that my immune system was too weak to deal with so many things that are around. Such as : Dust, mold, cold, fumes, perfumes, pollen.. all these things along with the viruses are a deadly cocktail and it was like poison to me,. Killing me slowly... Even going to a friends' house was a nightmare of sneezes, blocked nose and cough.. . So, i did what anyone else would do. look for a cure, desperately.. And i stumbled upon an ancient exercise regime that they used to deal with flu in the old days.. I started doing that.. Its been about 10 years.. Now, I have strengthen my immune system to a point that these things hardly affect me.. I have modified the exercise to fit around my schedule and lifestyle.. And now it only takes 5 mins everyday.. No chemicals, or medicines or hospital not even, natural products, special food, salt-water, steam... etc..
Just sit in a room and get some workout for my airways.. Never looked back..
Allergies :: Sperm Allergy - Recurrent Cystitis
Yesterday after having intercourse with my boyfriend of a year and a half, i noticed that some of the sperm came in contact with my hand and broke me out in a small rash on the area that was infected. I automatically assumed i may be allergic to my partners sperm and began looking online for answers as i think it might be related to why i get recurrent cystitis. I have been tested for Thrush and UTI's in the past 6 months and also underwent a bladder/kidney scan and a cystoscopy which all came back negative. After that i was completely baffled as to what could be causing me so much pain and misery. I know i don't have any evidence that this could be the cause to all my problems but when i visited the doctor yesterday he said it is a possibility that they are connected some how.
I really just want to know if anyone has suffered from a sperm allergy before who has maybe been affected with recurrent cystitis because of it and if so how you were diagnosed to find out if you were allergic to your partner's sperm and what you did to treat it?

View 12 RepliesNose Is ALWAYS Red - Allergy?
My nose is ALWAYS red. Some days worse than others but it's always red. There are also very thin, subtle red veins on the bridge of my nose (I have a "hawk" nose), again, some days worse than others.
I also have a lot of allergy problems. Went through a period of time when I had three sinus infections, one after another. I was diagnosed with allergy induced asthma as well although I don't take the montelukast I was prescribed.
Is it possible that my nose shape has anything to do with this? Or is the redness a skin problem and the allergies environmental?
Honestly, the redness bothers me more than the annoying breathing problems.

View 2 RepliesAllergy :: Allergic To Lip Products?
I am 18 years old, and I have never been allergic to anything in my life. As part of my nightly routine, I've always put on lip balm before bed. However, late last year, my lips started to get more dry and chapped than usual, even itchy. They felt like sand paper and often developed tiny bumps. If rubbed hard enough, the bumps would produce a clear liquid. The edges of my lips also sometimes felt very raw and red. These symptoms would last around a week.
At the time, I had been using just plain Burt's Bees Lip Balm for many weeks. When I got the symptoms, I used a bit more of the balm than I usually did, thinking it would work for dryness. When nothing seemed to be working, I stopped using it altogether. In time, my lips healed, and I switched to Softlips lipbalm in both vanilla and peppermint flavors. I showed no reaction from their usage for about a month. Then, I started getting the same reaction that I got from the Burt's Bees Lip Balm. That was when I figured I was developing an allergy to lip balm. Over time, I also realized I was getting the same reaction even faster from lipstick and lipgloss. That meant I was allergic to all lip products across the board.
I began researching into the symptoms and the ingredients in lip products, especially ones that commonly produced allergic reactions. With that knowledge in mind, I've tried many other balms these past months, including ones by Blistex and Kiss my Face. I'm even allergic to plain Chapstick. At first, I would not show any symptoms at all, but they would eventually show up within a few weeks, sometimes days. I even tried alternating the balms every night, which worked slightly but I would eventually get the reaction again. Nowadays, I only wear lip balm every few nights because I can't stand having chapped lips, but never multiple nights in a row. Even then, there's always a chance of my reacting to it.
I haven't been able to pinpoint the exact ingredient that I'm allergic to, and I'm hesitant to spend any more money to try more products. I haven't changed anything about my diet, makeup, facewash, mouthwash, or toothpaste, so I am very certain that it's the lip products. After my research I've also found that other people have had the same problem.
Has any product been found that works but doesn't trigger a reaction from people with my allergies?
I've heard that Vaseline is possibly the only solution, but because of my research I've been staying away from products with petroleum and petrolatum in them. Should I try it out anyway?
Food Allergy Following Virus
Following a throat bug/allergy in the spring, my throat became irritated by certain foods. I also had a bad cough, which turned out to be hay fever, and settled when treated. I was subsequently IGE tested and was diagnosed allergic to all items tested; tomatoes, onion, sweet pepper, lemon, kiwi & strawberries. Symptoms are an unpleasant tingling/burning mouth which can take 24 hours to settle. Antihistamines do not solve the problem. I have been prescribed Zantac/Ranitidine which I don't think helps. During the week I am very strict with my diet, and the symptoms settle. Then at the weekend if I relax and inadvertently eat a small amount of anything unsuitable, and enjoy a glass of wine, the symptoms return. Has anyone else had this? any advice would be great, thanks.
View 1 RepliesAllergy :: Eczema After Swimming
I do a lot of swimming and can't find a decent remedy or barrier for eczema. To be honest I control it pretty well but it flares up to the extent that it is incredibly uncomfortable and it is always the next day after I have been swimming. I then end up taking an antihistamine which makes me drowsy and then has an affect on my training (doing an ironman) for the days that follow. Can anyone recommend anything?
View 1 RepliesSevere Allergy From Eggs
I am 20 year old and this problem started when i visited a city in Pakistan (Peshawer), there is a dish called Kabab (Mixture or meat, eggs adn other), I ate that and after that I can't even eat a bit of egg.
I have left eating Backing products, Biscuits, Chocolate and everything that includes a bit of egg.
When I eat even a slice of biscuit, i causes me excessive pain in stomach and I can't eat anything else, i don't digests.
The only solution when I face such a problem is to give me injection to unconscious me for 3 to 4 hours than I feel a bit better.

I thought I was losing my mind and I still feel like I'm gonna lose my mind and I'm having an anxiety attack because of it. What could it have been? Is that normal? Should I be freaking out?

I turned 13 a while ago and around early last month I had the brown stuff in my undies. I told mum and she explained what it was and told me to mark the calendar 28 days after I first had the brown stuff. Well the 28 day mark has long gone and no period, nothing has happened. I have only ever gotten a little clear discharge but I have always had that.
