??allergic??: If it does that every time, quit taking aspirin and consider never doing ibuprofen or other NSAIDS. Some people are sensitized to these products and are at risk of major reactions with use.Discuss this with your doc at your next visit. There are other things you can use, and some products like peptobismol have aspirin like products in it.

Stop the Aspirin: It sounds like you have an allergy to aspirin. You need to stay away from aspirin and products that contain aspirin. Your next exposure could give you worse symptoms, so be careful.

AERD: Your condition is known as aspirin-exacerbated asthma which is often associated with nasal polyps , chronic sinusitis , and steroid-resistant asthma. This cause is likely from your body being oversensitive to the overproduction of some chemicals induced by aspirin. You must stay off of all NSAIDs except Celebres. If you asthma is difficult to control, consider getting desensitized to aspirin .
