stuffy nose and sneezing :: Article Creator Sneezing Symptoms In COVID Explained A Deep Dive Into One COVID Symptom Medically reviewed by Reza Samad, MD Sneezing can be a symptom of COVID-19. It was originally thought to be a much rarer symptom. It has since become more common with newer COVID-19 variants and in vaccinated people who contract the virus. Even so, the common cold and allergies are a more likely cause of sneezing. Sneezing is also a flu symptom. The SARS-CoV-2 virus, the coronavirus that causes COVID-19, can lead to a respiratory infection that affects the sinuses, throat, lungs, or airways. A person infected with COVID-19 can release aerosol particles and droplets of respiratory fluid that contain the virus and pass the virus on to others. Sneezing, coughing, talking, and singing can produce droplets.  ADVERTISEMENT Advertisement This article will cover why COVID-19 causes sneezing, conditions that cause similar sympto...

hives allergic reaction :: Article Creator Woman, 25, Is Allergic To Water: 'My Scalp Would Be Bleeding After Showering' A 25-year-old woman from Fresno is allergic to water, a rare condition that causes her to break out in welts and hives — even from her own tears and sweat.

eczema and asthma :: Article Creator How Your Child's Eczema Could Lead To Asthma And Food Allergies Later In Life "It is hypothesised that an impaired skin barrier in atopic dermatitis facilitates allergen penetration, sensitisation and development of allergic diseases such as food allergy, allergic asthma and allergic rhinitis," said Dr Chong Yi Rui Tricia, a consultant with National Skin Centre. "Scientists think this may be what leads some children to develop food allergies. When a baby's cracked skin touches food such as peanut, egg or cow's milk, their immune cells may respond and overreact to the food," said Dr Ho. The result is the immune system's production of antibodies known as immunoglobulin E (IgE). These antibodies travel to cells that release chemicals and typically tend to create symptoms in the nose, lungs, throat or on the skin, according to American Academy of Allergy Asthma & Immunology...

natural remedies for asthma in cats :: Article Creator Is There A Natural Remedy For An Allergy To Cats? Allergies such as your husband's are caused by the production of excessive amounts of histamine which usually gives rise to sneezing, a runny nose and watery eyes.

I recommend that your husband avoids dairy products as much as possible for this reason. A more natural alternative to conventional antihistamines is a supplement called Allergy Support. This contains a variety of nutrients known to help reduce alle...
