A member asked:
Is there an alternative to weekly allergy shots to relieve constant sinus pressure in my face? i'm rarely exposed to what i'm allergic to.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Allergy shots: Or immunotherapy, is the only disease modifying treatment so far known that changes the immune system response to external allergens. It is not meant to be a decongestant by itself, other medicines to relieve pressure should be taken during the course untill the desired effect is felt, can take up to a year to feel the difference and course continues for 3-5 years but rather 4-6weekly shots,
