Unlikely: Allergic rhinitis alone should not be causing a combination of all these symptoms.

Management/M.D.visit: I would suggest a follow up visit with your physician. Throbbing headaches may be related to changes in cerebral bloodflow and should be further investigated. For itchiness and swelling, an antihistamine can be used. Determining the trigger(s) of the symptoms and avoiding them is an important part of the management.
