Hello,
Seeing through your symptoms is more like an allergic problem. Having undergone surgery only will not help u to get rid of the symptoms.
U need to understand that if allergies persist then ur symptoms will also persist.
Start Steroid nasal sprays 2 puffs twice a day each nostril. For 3 weeks
Gargle with lukewarm water 5-7 times a day.
Tab. Montek FX one tablet at night one hour before sleep for 1 week.
Health Tips
wash pillow covers & bedsheets every alternate day.
wear a mask while heading out from the house.
avoid going near plants & birds & dusty environment.
