Hi,
A few days ago after I had underwent through what observed as normal allergies to cold I had a terrible experience.
I had stomach pains. When I consulted I was told that my veins had expanded and later contracted making them narrow to pass enough air.
I wish to seek the advice of wazuans in the field of medics to:
1.Advice me on how I can manage allergy
2.This story about my lung veins, can it be fatal in the future?

Celestamine also contains dexchlorpheniramine, an antihistamine. Any drug that contains a steroid as an active ingredient should be used with caution.
Set out to correct the world's wrongs and you will most certainly wind up adding to them.

No offense intended, but I am not sure anyone wants to ingest a drug on the strength of advice given here. It is still wise to personally talk to your doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment. Perhaps references to known physicians who have helped resolve these problems in the past would be helpful too.
Learn first to treat your time as you would your money, then treat your money as you do your time.

Eat lots of fruits particularly citrus fruits. Not a quick fix but in the long run will sort out the allergy. Be sure to eat the fruits on an empty stomach.
Lord, thank you!

Apparently, I had same problem some years back and Celestamine was prescribed.That was the end of my Cold allergies.
