It is very common to feel jaw and ear pain during a sinus infection, as sinus pressure can irritate nearby nerves and block the Eustachian tube. Your prescribed medications, including ebastine (ebast) for congestion and your nasal spray and drops, are very helpful for relieving this pressure. Ilaprazole (iladac) helps protect your stomach. Aciclovir is an antiviral medication, typically used if your doctor suspects a specific viral trigger. I reassure you that these symptoms should improve as the congestion clears. Please stay hydrated, and follow up with your doctor if your symptoms do not improve.

Should I take all of the medications my doctor prescribed, or can I just use Ebast-M and Furomist AZ nasal spray as needed for my allergies after finishing the 5-day course of antibiotics?

It is very important to complete your full 5-day course of antibiotics exactly as prescribed, even if you start feeling better, to ensure the underlying infection is fully cleared. Regarding your allergy medications, Ebast-M (ebastine and montelukast) and Furomist AZ nasal spray (fluticasone furoate and azelastine) actually work best when used consistently every day as prescribed, rather than just 'as needed,' to effectively prevent allergy symptoms. Please continue taking all of your medications exactly as your doctor directed, as they are designed to work together for your complete recovery.

What are the recommended treatment options for persistent allergic conjunctivitis (severe eye itching and redness) in a patient with allergic asthma when oral antihistamines provide only temporary relief?

Since oral antihistamines aren't providing lasting relief, I highly recommend discussing targeted eye drops with your doctor. Antihistamine drops with mast-cell stabilizing properties, such as olopatadine or ketotifen, can be very effective for daily control. For severe flare-ups, a brief course of mild corticosteroid eye drops might be prescribed under close medical supervision. Using cool compresses can also offer quick, soothing comfort. Please consult an eye specialist or your allergist to find the safest, most effective plan for both your eyes and asthma.

What should I do to treat a sore throat and sneezing that started after I missed taking my Ebast M medication for three days?

Ebast M contains ebastine and montelukast, which control allergies. Missing it for three days likely caused your allergy symptoms to return, and the sore throat could be due to post-nasal drip. Please resume your medication as prescribed by your doctor to help manage the sneezing. For immediate throat relief, try warm salt water gargles, stay well-hydrated, and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist, you develop a fever, or they worsen, please consult your healthcare provider for a personalized evaluation.

Is it safe for me to get the COVID-19 vaccine if my allergy marker (IgE) level is high at around 400 and I am currently taking Ebast M for my allergies?

Your medication, Ebast M (which contains ebastine and montelukast), is safe to continue and will not interfere with the vaccine's effectiveness. Unless you have a history of severe allergic reactions to a previous vaccine dose or its specific ingredients, you can safely proceed. Just inform the vaccination staff about your allergies so they can monitor you for the standard 15 to 30 minutes afterward.

Why is one of my nostrils still partially blocked after taking Azee 500, Ivepred 8mg, Flomist spray, and Ebast-M for my year-long nasal allergies, and what are the next steps for treating suspected growths in my nose or a crooked nasal passage?

While your treatments?including fluticasone spray (Flomist), ebastine-montelukast (Ebast-M), methylprednisolone (Ivepred), and azithromycin (Azee)?are excellent for reducing allergy inflammation, they cannot physically correct structural issues. If you have a crooked nasal passage (deviated septum) or nasal growths (polyps), these physical barriers can keep one side blocked. Your best next step is to consult an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist.

What is a strong and permanent treatment for a recurring coin-shaped skin rash (nummular eczema) on my knuckle and elbow, since previous treatments like Ebast tablets and Aloederm ointment only offered temporary relief?

Nummular eczema can be stubborn, especially on high-friction areas like your knuckles and elbows. While there is no instant permanent cure, we can achieve long-term control. The ebastine tablets and Aloederm ointment you used help with itching and mild healing, but stubborn flare-ups often require a stronger generic topical corticosteroid, prescribed by a doctor, used for a short period. Keeping the skin deeply hydrated with thick, fragrance-free moisturizers and protecting your hands from harsh soaps is also key. Please consult a dermatologist to tailor a safe, effective treatment plan for you.
