I have had hayfever for 2 weeks and the antihistamines are getting rid of the symtoms yet my nose is still kinda out of shape. Does anyone else have the same problem and what can I do? How long will it be before it's back to normal? My nose is red raw inside in one nostril.

hello,simple answer is this,your nasal receptors had a reaction to whatever caused the hay fever and the antihistamines will deal with that,the nose being swollen is a result of the nasal blood vessels swelling which is a normal reaction and should reduce within a fortnight,

yes, nasal tissue can cause some nasal swelling. I suggest trying Mucinex as its a mucus thinner and works wonderful for me. Also look and try some of the nasal saline flushes to get crud out of the tissues and help the healing.

use "ocean spray" saline to soothe and heal your nose and sinus, use it a lot and it will help prevent allergies.

It depends on how bad your allergies are.
