Does the pneumonia vaccine help cut down on allergy and sinus issues and infections?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really: The pneumonia vaccine will help prevent infections from S pneumonia. It will not stop or prevent allergy problems. If ones sinus problems are caused by infection related to S pneumonia then yes it will help other wise no.
