Answer by Dr.Bhumika Aggarwal (doctor) on Thu 14, Aug 2008 11:52am:

Hi, This may be one of the presentations of Asthma. It has an allergic component to it because of the immune system involvement and therefore would present like that. On the other hand sinusitis, which may also be related would have similar presentation. It is therefore best that you may get an alternative opinion on the diagnosis with a physical and some tests and thereafter also get a revision on how to self-administer nasal sprays. I think at least part of your problem may be incorrect method of administration. Hope this helped. let me know if you may have any other query.
