If you are prone to "colds" for most of the year, it is possible that in fact you are allergic. With proper treatment, allergic symptoms can be minimized - or completely rid of them. If left unattended, an allergy can lead to sinusitis and ear infections. The allergy usually develops quickly and includes a runny nose, sneezing, wheezing, tears and itching in the eyes. You can also experience itching in the ears, nose and throat. Nasal discharge is clear, liquid and watery. Allergy occurs at any time of the year, depending on the component that causes it, and may last several weeks or months. Sample to determine the cause of allergies and treatment is prescribed by a doctor. If an allergen is detected (a safe, usually substance that causes an allergic reaction), the best way to avoid allergies is to avoid contact with the allergen. When this is not possible, you can achieve short-term or long-term relief with drugs, like OTC, and prescription drugs: antihistamines, decongestants and corticosteroid sprays from the common cold. With chronic allergies, a doctor can prescribe immunotherapy (injections). A cold usually develops within a few days. Symptoms can be the same as with allergies, but without itching in the ears, nose and throat. A sore throat, a cough or a little fever may arise. Discharge from the nose, liquid and transparent at the beginning of the disease, become thick, yellowish or greenish. Colds usually fall ill in autumn and winter and last for 7-10 days. For colds, temporary relief may be provided by antihistamines and nasal drops dispensed without a prescription. If symptoms persist for at least two weeks, consult a doctor
