Q: I have a 15 year old son who has been suffering from a cold, probably an allergy for many years. He has a DNS problem but I do not think it is because of that. The situation is worst when he wakes up and continues for a few hours. His eyes water, his nose flows and he keeps blowing into hankies or at the basin. Naturally, this affects everything he does. Your advice please. We would be happy to know where in Delhi we could get a proper allergy test done-address, telephone numbers would be welcome.

A:Your son's Allergic Rhinitis should fare much better on Tab. Allegra or Altiva 120 mg. once a day during allergy season for a month. If that does not work alone, you may add Metaspray, a nasal spray once a day to the above regime for a month. Allergy tests do not help much but occasionally a nasalfilter does.
