COLD OR ALLERGY?

1 Reply

Hello Everyone,

I have had a blocked nose (or at least it feels blocked) and the feeling of phlegm stuck down my throat for the last couple of months with only a few days here and there when I am symptom free. I am sure this is making my asthma worse.

I find it hard to believe that it is a cold after all this time and I don't have any other symptoms of a cold. However my doctor arranged for me to be allergy tested and the results came back as normal.

Does anyone else experience these symptoms is it just a cold that is hanging around or could it be due to something else other than an allergy.

I had that and put it down to increased use of Symbicort in the colder weather.
