I sometimes sneeze so much that I go crazy, is this an allergy?

Question

Whenever I enter a new room, or when I go out especially in the sunlight I start to sneeze like 4 5 times, what kind of an allergy can it be?

Answer 1

I've always sneezed when I look up to the sky with a bright sun. I would try to look more than twice and it would happen again and again. It was kind of funny but annoying too, specially when I wanted to watch something in the sky like a bird, a plane, or the clouds. I've searched and found that some people have this kind of "allergy" that's not really an allergy but a reaction to the bright light. The nerve that makes us sneeze is really close to the optic nerve so that's why when our eyes are exposed to bright light, it stimulates the sneezing nerve. It happens whith flourescent lights, too, not just the sunlight.

Answer 2

Generally it is more than just sneezing in the sunlight to diagnose
an allergy - - keep a journal of all your symptoms, then check it out with your doctor.

good luck

Answer 3

You most likely have allergic rhinitis. You could be allergic to pollen, mold, dust, pets, or all of the above like me.

You should make an appointment to see a physician who specializes in allergies and asthma.

You will be tested for allergens and will know exactly what it is that is causing you to sneeze like that.

Answer 4

Should see doc.
