Been in this situation countless times. Everytime this happens I promise myself I will be grateful and enjoy the ability to breathe through both of my nostrils once it happens and yet I forget about it the next day
But also that moment when your congestion clears all at once. Ooof, that’s a good feeling.
This meme just made me appreciate my nose is currently clear, thank you.
This year I actually found a combination of allergy meds that works for me (yes combination, 1 just doesn’t do it for me)
It’s straight up bliss not having to wear a face mask for a couple months just to not die
Edit: Yes I consulted my doctor before doing multiple at a time. In fact the 2 I’m taking right now (Allegra and Flonase) were the 2 they recommended I try together.
You should check out Azelestine is you haven’t already… Antihistamine straight to the brain! Well, okay, the nose. It’s a really nice option.
I have to be careful with the antihistamines I use due to other medications I’m on and due to my job being operating heavy machinery
Basically if the side effect list includes drowsiness I can’t take it
Azelistine has never, to my knowledge, made me drowsy. It’s not taken in a pill - it’s a spray. You shoot it right onto the problem area (if that area is the nose - though, there’s eye drops I hear as well.)
This said, do absolutely consult a doctor if you can… BUT, this is actually an over-the-counter drug as of a few years ago. Easy to try if you can’t afford the allergist. Maybe on your day off, if you can take it with the other(s). Google it, or ideally ask your doctor first.
Yeah maybe be should start wearing a diving mask for a few hours once a month as a nose appreciation ritual

Hayfever
Me getting some serious allergies ever since I came to visit my (pregnant) sister
Praying it IS just allergies and not an infection
And it has gotten bad. Y’know when there’s mucus down in your lungs? Yea.
AND she lives in a small town, so the bronchitis pump I use won’t be here until tomorrow as it has to be ordered from the big city.
(Kill me)
Look up Buteyko breathing and nose clearing exercises.
Just lay on your back for 15 minutes.
Dude with allergies here… Y’all are spouting some weak shit up in here.
