Aromatic compounds - inflammation of upper airways
Posted , 1 user is following.
I developed a condition early last year which results in inflammation of upper airways upon inhalation of aromatic compounds. The condition starts with burning sensation in the throat followed by migraine like headache and general feeling of unwell (flu like symptoms and weakness). The aromatic compounds could range between anything - deodorant, perfume, aftershave, room freshener, soap, shampoo, handwash, face cream, moisturiser and some strong chemicals. Doctors prescribed me variety of anti-histamines but it seems not solving the problem and therefore stopped. Finally I have made life style changes to stay away from anything that triggers the condition. Currently I am advised nasal irrigation and Dymista nasal spray which was giving me minor relief. However lately that does not seem to be working.
Can you please advise? I cannot bear the flu like symptoms all day which is affecting my work.
