Asked by Female, 39 ยท 16 hours ago

Frequent cold and cough symptoms can sometimes be due to repeated viral infections, but they are also commonly related to Allergic Rhinitis or allergies to dust, pollen, smoke, pets, or weather changes. If symptoms occur repeatedly without high fever and are associated with sneezing, itching, watery eyes, or seasonal triggers, allergy may be a likely cause. Avoid dust and smoke exposure, keep rooms clean, drink enough fluids, and consider steam inhalation or saline gargles for relief. Medicines such as antihistamines may help, but it is best to consult a physician or ENT specialist for proper evaluation and to decide whether allergy treatment or further tests are needed.
