Can my ongoing allergies, or the nasal spray and Allegra prescribed by my ear, nose, and throat doctor, cause my nose to swell?

Asked by Female, 24 · 4 minutes ago

It is very common for ongoing allergies themselves to cause inflammation and swelling inside your nose. Regarding your medications, Allegra (fexofenadine) helps reduce this swelling and is highly unlikely to cause it. However, certain nasal sprays, especially if used for too long or if they cause local irritation, can sometimes lead to dryness or a rebound swelling effect. Please be reassured that this is a manageable issue. I recommend discussing the specific nasal spray you are using with your doctor to see if adjusting your treatment can help bring you some comfort.
