Hey!
I live in Canada and I'm teen. I've been through a lot of stuff with my friends over the last few years and I always try to give my insight into their problems (sometimes even when they don't really want it lol).
I've realized that over time I have accumulated a lot of questions about moving on, so if you have a question about that, lay it on me!!
I don't think that ratings matter, and that you should choose someone to trust your question with, that will answer it with care, but show you what the world really is and wont sugar coat it.
I hope you guys find my advice helps, hope to talk soon!! :D

I have absolutely horrid allergies. Everytime the seasons change I'm out of commission for a few days, or else struggling to make it through the day.
I'm currently using Flonase, twice a day like you're supposed to. It works for mild things, like year-long triggers (cats, dogs, oak, etc) but doesn't do much when the pollen count is really high, like now.
Problem is, I can't go on anything else. I tried to take Zyrtec a few years back and had a not so fun allergic reaction in the form of puking my guts out constantly (Yeah, not fun) so I refuse to go on anything else of the sort.
So I was hoping someone can help me out! Any natural remedies, foods, or even herbal supplements? Any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance, and I will rate! =] (link)

hey!
I have pretty bad seasonal allergies as well, but what I would recommend is seeking medical treatment. I went on nasocort, which I think is like flonase, and I got nosebleeds, so my doctor took me off of it, and put me on non prescription drugs such as aerius and reactine. and they work really well. But if its a sinus allergy I highly doubt there are non medical remedies. I would suggest getting allergy tested and talking to an allergy doctor, because I have a weird sinus thing and I have to get a CT scan, so it could be more than just an allergy and doctors have seen it all, they probably know what to do. Things I do when theres alot of pollen in the air are:
- Wear a doctor's mask when cutting the grass, or sitting outside
- close up the windows and doors
-put a wet cloth over my eyes.
those may work, but if you google it, you may get more answers. I hope that helps a bit, love ya,
