I’m glad that worked for you, but for some people with allergies each attack can make the allergy worse, as the immune system sensitizes itself to the allergen in the presence of inflammation.

One treatment for allergies is exposure, but that is done using extremely small doses to allow the immune system to “see” the allergen without inflammation and thus lessen the response.
