My son is almost a year old and has terrible allergies. He's constantly rubbing his nose on things and he won't let me use the nasal aspirator on him. I'm not sure what's causing his allergies. We don't have any pets and I live in Reno so there's not exactly a whole lot of vegetation here. If anyone has any home remedies or any ideas about this it would be greatly appreciated!

Some children just have bad allergies, regardless of where they live, etc. Have you tried giving him allergie medicine, My children have allergies and I give them zertec that their doc perscribes. Do you use a fireplace? If so, it can cause this. Does your son have anything feather in his bed? If this continues, take him to the doc b/c they can actually have a sinus infection at that age, even though their sinuses aren't done growing.

It could be something in his diet. You should take him to an allergist to get tested. My 2 yr old son, for example, turned out to be allergic to eggs and milk, nuts, soy, carrots and dustmites (microscopic organisms that live in your mattress or bedding unless you buy hypoallergenic covering.). Once we bought him the covering for his bed, his skin allergies improved. We changed his diet and we give him antihystamine, per the doctor's dosage indication, when he needs it. Good luck

My nephew is 2, and he also sufffers from terrible allergies. The doctor recently prescribed him Clarinex, which is a mild medication thaat seems to work. Ask him about it, and let me know! I hope this helps!

If you don't know for sure what he's allergic to, then there really isn't anything you can do. You have to find out what it is that's making his allergies go crazy and then you can figure out what to do for him.
Take him to his pediatrician and see if they can diagnose what is causing his allergies, and then you can go from there. God bless and I hope he feels better :-)
