Hello, I am Dr. Romain Rajan, General Physician.
I understand your concern â a runny nose lasting a few days can be caused by a viral infection or mild irritation. Since you are already using Relent and have high blood pressure controlled with Stamlo beta, it is important to monitor symptoms carefully
â
Advices
⢠Continue using saline nasal sprays to keep the nasal passages moist
⢠Maintain good hydration and rest to support recovery
⢠Avoid over-the-counter decongestants unless approved by your doctor, as some can affect blood pressure
What to Monitor
⢠Watch for persistent fever, severe headache, facial pain, or yellow/green nasal discharge
⢠Note any worsening shortness of breath, swelling, or dizziness
Management
You may try gentle steam inhalation to relieve nasal congestion. Avoid self-medicating with additional nasal sprays or decongestants, as treatment needs to be individualized given your blood pressure medication
When to Consult a Doctor Immediately
⢠High or persistent fever
⢠Shortness of breath or chest discomfort
⢠Severe facial pain or swelling around eyes
Every patientâs situation is unique. For accurate diagnosis and lasting relief, it is important to discuss your medical history and symptoms in detail
You can reach out to me directly for this case, and also connect with me in future for any medical consultation
I am available on Practo or on WhatsApp at 85271646 seven seven for a one-on-one consultation where you will receive
A personalized treatment plan
Safe medicine adjustments if required
Quick follow-ups to track your recovery
Take care, wishing you good health
Best regards
Dr. Romain Rajan
