Allergies
I have developed an allergy to cigarette and other kinds of smoke .
Symptoms are watery eyes , tiredness , itchy throat( most troubling symptom ) . There is no cough , sneezing etc . Just a bit of weakness and itchy throat . Nasal pathways are congested as well
I am taking Sudafex ( antihistamine ) since past 20 days and beclomethasone nasal spray . There is some improvement but i am seeking a permanent solution.
The itchy Throat is the main issue . The nasal spray has healed the nasal passages but the throat remains irritated and is very troubling
Any help will be highly appreciated

Itchy throat may even due to throat irritation due to acid reflux caused by smoking. Take Tab Pan-D once morning before breakfast for 5-7 days along with nasal steroid spray. The only permanent cure is to avoid irritant which in your case is cigarette.
Next Steps
avoid cigarette. avoid cold and dust.
