Nasal saline/allergy: You may be experiencing an allergic reaction. Rinse nasal passages to reduce post nasal drip and continue your antihistamine. Avoid over medication, drink fluids and check your temperature. Avoid smoke, dust, pollen, mold and animal dander. Have allergy testing completed as per your PCP.
